Product Description:
Social Security disability is an enormous program, with hundreds of thousands of people participating each year. Consequently, it's easy for both participants and first-time applicants to get lost in the system's bureaucracy.

Nolo's Guide to Social Security Disability is an essential book for anyone dealing with a long-term or permanent disability. Written both for first-time applicants and those who already receive Social Security disability, Dr. David Morton's book demystifies the program in plain English, thoroughly explaining:

* what Social Security disability is
* what benefits are available to disabled children
* how to prove a disability
* how age, education and work experience affect benefits
* whether or not one can work while receiving benefits
* how to appeal a denial of benefits
* how to respond to a Continuing Disability Review * and much more

Nolo's Guide to Social Security Disability also provides in-depth information on various health problems, including:

* breathing disabilities
* heart disease
* mental disorders
* speech impairments
* cancer
* immune system disorders
* and much more

This comprehensive and compassionate book, packed with tear-out forms and a sample disability application, covers both Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income. User-friendly appendices translate bureaucratic terms, list medical-vocational rules, and provide a list of social-security benefit publications. Nolo's Guide to Social Security Disability is an indispensable resource for anyone suffering from any disability.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Up To Date Information that anyone on disability needs.
It is no fun being diabled but it is even worse to go thru a 3 year fight to get what you have paid into for 30 years. This book tells you everything you need to do each step of the way. I wish I had it then. I got it for the keeping it part as I am having my first review. I am even more sick than before and the letter you get from SSA is quite upsettting. This book helps you put it into perspective. A must have for all people on SSDI or those who manage others who are.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Complete and thorough tutorial on making your disability claim a success
This book helped me get my federal disability claim on my 2nd try. The author, a former federal employee for the Social Security department, explains in good detail the best way to file for your claim.

He explains that the reason many filers get denied even though they have a valid claim is because they didn't have the right kind of documentation. What is the right kind of documentation? First of all, it must meet the medical wording guidelines of the Social Security Department. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Keeping Your Social Security Benefits
This book gave you examples of the language you need to use. Pretty easy to read and I did find it helpful.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book; up-to-date information
this is a must for those of us who deserve disability, but will have to fight for our rights. some of us have what's referred to as "invisible problems" such as chronic severe back problems, Fibromyalgia, MS, etc, and this book is really good. Certainly worth the price.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Informative
This book gave a step by step process to apply for social security disability. It also answered every question that I had. This is a must read for anyone considering disability.
