What is Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI)?
SSDI is a Federal program designed to provide benefits to individuals who can not work as the result of a disability. Eligibility for SSDI is not based on your income. It is based on having paid FICA taxes. Click here for more information from Social Security.
How do I Know if I am Eligible for SSDI Benefits?
In order to be eligible for SSDI benefits you must have paid FICA taxes for 5 out of 10 years before you became disabled. You must also have a disability severe enough to meet Social Security’s definition. Click here for more information from Social Security.
How Long Does it Take to Obtain SSDI Benefits?
Applying for Social Security benefits can be a long and frustrating process. Social Security is experiencing unprecedented delays in processing cases, leaving some individuals waiting for longer than three years. GENEX Disability does everything possible to expedite cases through the process and obtain benefits as soon as possible. Click here for more information from Social Security.
What About Medicare?
Medicare benefits are awarded 24 months after you have been receiving Social Security Disability. This will be done automatically by the Social Security Administration. The 24 month waiting period starts the month you become eligible for Social Security Disability, not the month you receive your first check. Click here for more information from Social Security.
