If
you are age 50 or over, you may qualify for Social Security benefits for
any physical or mental condition which prevents you from full-time
work.
Yes,
younger individuals may also qualify. However, Social Security uses
Medical-Vocational Guidelines which relax the requirements somewhat for
persons age 50 and over.
In
addition to your age, other factors include your past work experience
and education. But being age 50 or more is the greatest single
advantage a claimant has in being approved for Social Security benefits.
The
Forsythe Firm will provide you with a free case evaluation and local
consultation. If we represent you, you will never pay a fee until you
get benefits with back payments. If you do not win benefits you will
never pay us a fee for any service we perform.
