Download or read book Guide to Government Benefits Social Security Medicare Medicaid Unemployment Insurance Disability written by Lauren T. and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-03-04 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK According to the Nation Poverty Center of the University of Michigan, 15 percent of the entire US population, or 45 million people, lived at or below the national poverty level in 2010. Many of these people are barely able to make ends meet, and are forced to make difficult decisions about paying for one basic necessity over another. This often leads to stress-related conditions such as heart disease, depression and anxiety, and many poverty-stricken people who cannot afford to treat these medical problems themselves. Fortunately, federal and state governments provide income, health care and other benefits as safety nets for impoverished and economically vulnerable people. These come in the form of Social Security benefits, Medicaid and unemployment insurance. Government benefits are an important aspect of a healthy, productive society and serve as a fail-safe against widespread poverty. Without them, many would go without basics such as food, shelter clothing and health care. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Once the application is submitted, the SSA usually does not need require documentation from the applicant because the information can be easily verified by various government databases. However, if the Social Security Administration does request proof or other documentation of any information on the application, potential beneficiaries must turn in the required paperwork within the specified time frame to avoid a delay in receiving benefits. The most commonly requested documents include photo identification, Social Security cards, birth certificates, marriage certificates and tax returns. The SSA does not accept photocopies or faxes of these documents; applicants must send the original documents by mail. The Social Security Administration will mail them back at the end of the application process. Survivors Benefits When a worker dies, the Social Security Administration provides their family with survivor's benefits to help fill the income gap left behind. These come as both one-time and monthly payments. A worker must have earned at least six credits in the three years before his death for his family to receive survivors benefits...

Download or read book An Insider s Guide to Social Security Disability written by Charles Richfield and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's how YOU can avoid the mistakes that cause many disability claims to be wrongly denied. Did you know that more than half of those who apply for Social Security or SSI disability and receive a medical decision are eventually APPROVED? However, it is also true that only about 35% of people filing for benefits are approved the first time they apply. This means that many cases are denied the first time and then approved after filing an appeal. Why are so many claims denied the first time? In many cases, the initial application is just not filled out correctly. No matter how severe your medical problems are, if you don't explain them well enough and provide the right information when you apply, your claim can be denied. As a former Social Security Claims Representative who recently retired after 25 years of handling disability claims, the author of this book can offer you the benefit of his experience by walking you step-by-step through the application process. In this simple, easy to follow, no-nonsense guide, Charles Richfield focuses on what you really need to know as a claimant for disability. He does not waste your time with useless information about the history of Social Security, and does his best not to confuse you with unnecessary details about rules, regulations and exceptions that don't apply to most people applying for benefits; this is NOT a training manual! You will learn and understand: -The basic types of disability benefits and how to qualify for them -How the medical decision is made -How to decide if you need a lawyer -What you need to do even BEFORE you file the application -How to go about filing your own application without even coming into an office -What you need to know about applying in person or by phone -What you need to do while your application is waiting for a medical decision -What to expect if your application is approved -The best ways to file effective appeal requests that will maximize your chances of being approved In addition, the author has included a Special Bonus Section near the end of the book which not only gives you expert advice about filling out the medical and work history sections of the Adult Disability Report; it also explains how you can find out EXACTLY what kinds of medical records and test results the examiner will be looking for according to the type of illness or injury you have. That information alone could help you provide the examiner with the proof needed to approve your claim! If you or someone you know is unable to work because of injury or illness, don't wait! You can lose hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars in disability benefits if you wait too long to apply-it happens to other people much too often. File that application as soon as you can, but also make sure you fill it out THE RIGHT WAY from the start! This book will help you to do just that.
