Download or read book Get Social Security Checks written by Michael Schultz and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-05-27 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything you need to know to get the most Social Security checks you are entitled to -- as fast as possible. Ex Social Security claims representative (30 years with the agency) "pulls back the curtain" on what it takes to get approved for retirement, disability, SSI, and Medicare. Cuts through the bureaucratic red tape and obfuscation and tells you in plain language what the law says and -- most importantly -- what the law MEANS and how it may apply to you and your situation. You can get the legal facts from Social Security, but the language is spun by lawyers. The agency does not explain the consequences of the facts unless you have a solid background in the programs and are really good at reading between the lines. Who This Book is For Everybody in their fifties or early sixties and considering their retirement options. People who have severe medical problems and are considering applying for disability benefits from SSA and/or SSI. People who have already applied for such disability benefits and still awaiting a decision. People on Social Security disability who want to understand better what happens if they work. People on SSI who want to understand how their check amounts are determined. People approaching Medicare either through age (65) or two years on disability. People who've just suffered the death of a spouse. Family and friends of the above. Lawyers and other representatives who genuinely wish to help their clients. Everybody who's currently working under the United States Social Security system -- (that is, almost everybody who's working inside the U.S. but not for a state or local government). Several years ago, in an attempt to reduce their workload backlog, the agency instructed Claims Representatives to stop giving retirement applicants a breakeven analysis. Here is the information you need to know to choose the retirement month right for you -- how the month you retire affects the amount of your checks, and how the rest of your life should affect your decision. The legal facts are publicly available in Social Security's claim manual (POMS) which you can read online. But that won't tell you how to get the most benefits possible, as fast as possible. Includes clearer and expanded explanations, comments on how the regulations are applied in real life, examples, pointers on how to legally help yourself and avoid common mistakes, and some true anecdotes that pertain to the content. Get the insights of someone who worked in a Social Security field office for over thirty years. This book is intended to help you help your Claims Representative -- and your disability counselor if you're filing for disability -- make the best -- and fastest -- possible decision. They'll love you for it. Many people think SSA is "out to get them" and is picking on them personally. Ridiculous. SSA employees are far too busy to want to "target" or single you out. Most claimants are far more harmed by their own actions or failures to act in a timely fashion than by anything SSA does. How to help yourself. How to avoid sabotaging your chances of getting approved. MANY SSA claimant do stab themselves in the back. * 2 things that delay the startup of benefit checks. The first has to do with your lifestyle, but the second can -- and should be -- cleared up BEFORE you file your application. * The three questions you must ask yourself before you pick the month to retire * What is your Full Retirement Age, and can you get checks earlier? * If you became disabled -- unable to work -- tomorrow, could you draw Social Security disability? * The biggest single reasons people are denied for disability. How to avoid the one that is always your fault -- and it's very common. * When to hire a lawyer. Some lawyers claim you should have one when you file. That's a rip-off. Those lawyers just want an easy 25% of your back check. Therefore, scroll up and download the inside scoop on applying for retirement, disability, SSI, and Medicare.

Download or read book Mental Retardation written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-08-09 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current estimates suggest that between one and three percent of people living in the United States will receive a diagnosis of mental retardation. Mental retardation, a condition characterized by deficits in intellectual capabilities and adaptive behavior, can be particularly hard to diagnose in the mild range of the disability. The U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) provides income support and medical benefits to individuals with cognitive limitations who experience significant problems in their ability to perform work and may therefore be in need of governmental support. Addressing the concern that SSA's current procedures are consistent with current scientific and professional practices, this book evaluates the process used by SSA to determine eligibility for these benefits. It examines the adequacy of the SSA definition of mental retardation and its current procedures for assessing intellectual capabilities, discusses adaptive behavior and its assessment, advises on ways to combine intellectual and adaptive assessment to provide a complete profile of an individual's capabilities, and clarifies ways to differentiate mental retardation from other conditions.

Download or read book Get What s Yours written by Laurence J. Kotlikoff and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn the secrets to maximizing your Social Security benefits and earn up to thousands of dollars more each year with expert advice that you can't get anywhere else. Want to know how to navigate the forbidding maze of Social Security and emerge with the highest possible benefits? You could try reading all 2,728 rules of the Social Security system (and the thousands of explanations of these rules), but Kotlikoff, Moeller, and Solman explain Social Security benefits in an easy to understand and user-friendly style. What you don't know can seriously hurt you: wrong decisions about which Social Security benefits to apply for cost some individual retirees tens of thousands of dollars in lost income every year. How many retirees or those nearing retirement know about such Social Security options as file and suspend (apply for benefits and then don't take them)? Or start stop start (start benefits, stop them, then re-start them)? Or-just as important-when and how to use these techniques? Get What's Yours covers the most frequent benefit scenarios faced by married retired couples, by divorced retirees, by widows and widowers, among others. It explains what to do if you're a retired parent of dependent children, disabled, or an eligible beneficiary who continues to work, and how to plan wisely before retirement. It addresses the tax consequences of your choices, as well as the financial implications for other investments. Many personal finance books briefly address Social Security, but none offers the thorough, authoritative, yet conversational analysis found here. You've paid all your working life for these benefits. Now, get what's yours.
