    Hey Brian, thank you for putting these informational videos online for us vets. I’m currently 90% VA rating. With 70% for PTSD. I also suffer lower back pain, with spondostenosis, spondolistesis, sciatica, DDD, torn ankle ligaments on both ankles with a deformed dominate hand left pinky. I haven’t even mentioned my migraines and others. Sorry about the blabbing.
    What would be a good concrete approach into winning SSDI for these illnesses/challenges ?
    Thank you once again.

    I applied for ss disability my employer denied injury happened at work. Herniated disc. We had a lawyer saved all paper work. Suitcase full. Contacted ss have doctors dates procedures these are necessary. And in the end restrictions. About 6 weeks check in mail. Save all paperwork As a note my lawyer offered to help me apply for social security disability but we figured we would attempt it on our own. A win. Good luck on yours.

    I have been rated TDIU P&T since March 2021. I applied for SSDI earlier this year and it has recently moved to the 3rd phase of the application process. My TDIU award letter clearly explained why the psychiatrist believes I am unable to work and also lists 14 conditions that justify the medical condition that qualifies the TDIU rating. I take all the medications that the VA prescribed as well as see a private psychiatrist who prescribes additional medications that the VA won’t prescribe. I am hopeful that the SSDI claim works out.

    Pls confirm 35 yrs used to calculate SSDI starts at age 18 versus 22 if I enlisted and contributed via deductions to SSA at age 18 in 1989.

    • @TheDisabilityDigest
      @TheDisabilityDigest  Před 4 měsíci

      I understand your question and the importance of clarifying how your Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits are calculated.
      The Social Security Administration (SSA) calculates your SSDI benefits based on your lifetime average earnings covered by Social Security. They typically use your highest 35 years of earnings to calculate your average monthly income. If you have fewer than 35 years of earnings, the SSA will use all of the years. Non-working years are counted as zeros in the calculation.
      The SSA does not specify a starting age for these 35 years. So, if you started working and contributing to Social Security at age 18, those years should be included in the calculation.
      For a more detailed explanation of how your Disability Check amount is calculated, you can watch this video: czcams.com/video/iatGPwY63BY/video.html
      Remember, every situation is unique, and it's important to make the decision that's best for you.

    Q: are there any programs [i'm a veteran, and i get ssdi] for help on housing? i live in OH, {with the recent death of my mother}, i no longer have a reason to remain here: my cousin lives in Lutz, and she keeps begging me to move to FL, and I'm considering it! My sister is due to retire in a few years, and I'd like to have a place to call home for both of us! my care is through the VA, i have MS, Smoldering Multiple (i can't recall the full name - it's a blood disease), I've never used my VA home loan (if I had, my ex-wife would've snatched it from me!) so that's something to consider! My ex-son in law told me about a place in Jacksonville that provides housing for veterans, but have not found anything that resembles that!

    as a Vet with 100% TDIU all I can say is hire a lawyer for SSA benefits. I have been fighting the SSA for going on 10 years this October. Brian is right they dont sync they dont like one another HOWEVER... this is where the lawyer comes in but the VA and SSA do screw around with your records to benefit one another such as for my 100% I had 3 doctor's letter stating that i could not work and why as well as a limitation worksheet. At my ALJ level i finally hired a lawyer and found out for 6 years the SSA did not have those letters because the VA had Erased all but one letter since it was a basic letter and not detailing that is was a no work letter for benefits. My lawyer did drop me and the Appeals tribunal rejected my appeal for my ALJ case and i had to go to District federal appeals and that is a costly and very difficult case and not many lawyers will represent you, i was fortunate enough to find one who takes like 4 cases a year and he found a technical flaw, the SSA did not take into account my Fibromyalgia at all, indeed Fibromyalgia is not a qualifying disability however the symptoms are based on your person symptoms as well as how they impact you in a work setting and for me it was one if not the main reason why the military discharged me. so as above said get a lawyer yes they will take your back pay money but its still worth it because at the federal level your chances only dwindle even lower of getting them and the fee for the lawyer gets more expensive.

He was only a month out of boot camp.i guess the good thing is it happened so fast he probably didn't feel much pain..I now have severe ptsd from that event.the VA just denied my claim
    I haven't had my evaluation yet.its on the 17th of this month..they also said my DD214 didn't have my awards,ribbons and me medals on it which they are. I'm being represented by a law firm in West Virginia.what do think about that and do you think I have a chance at all.

    More info:
    I cannot speak for other states, but I live in North Carolina and I just got a letter from social security yesterday, telling me this.
    --I am 100% P&T with the VA (70 + TDIU). My healthcare with the VA is more than sufficient. At 100% you even get dental. So, after my social security disability had been with me for a year, I was offered medicare at, like he said, $148 per month. I had no need for medicare. Sure, it would have been nice to expand my access to civilian doctors, but with my existing VA coverage, it wasn't worth spending money on medicare.
    So, I turned down medicare.
    Yesterday came the letter I opened up here talking about. The state of North Carolina pretty much insists that I have medicare to the point where, they are going to pay for it. So, I turned down medicare at a premium, and as a result I got medicare paid for by the state.
    That could be because I am 100% with the VA. OR, it could be because VA benefits are non taxable, making my official income only what I receive from social security. I have no idea which thing triggered this. But in the state of North Carolina, if your situation is exactly the same as mine...the state is going to pay your medicare premium and give it to you anyway, after you turn down the offer to buy it at $148 per month.

      I have worked with many veterans in a similar situation. Medicare part B is optional. However, if you decline and do not have credible coverage like tri care then if you join later there is a penalty... Note that there are 2 ways to reduce or eliminate the part B cost.

      Its been a while since you posted; how are things going? I have experienced everything you did and I am at 50%. The only reason I am on 50% is because some of my trauma came from things that happened before I enlisted. I receive both SS and VA compensation. It is a long process, even with an attorney I was not approved until 2-1/2 years later. I personally didn't try to push for a higher rating because when I go to the VA I see people from every generations with TBI, no arms, no legs or no eyes, stuff like that, and I feel they deserve that 100% so much more than I do.

    • @TheDisabilityDigest
      @TheDisabilityDigest  Před 7 dny

      Don't be! If you're a veteran and you're receiving VA disability benefits, you may also be eligible for SSDI. The two programs have different criteria, but if you're unable to work due to your disability, it's certainly worth applying. I understand that applying for SSDI might be a bit overwhelming, but I'm here to help you navigate through this process for free. We can start here: bit.ly/34wviJY.

  • @roof_ratcv6638
    @roof_ratcv6638 Před rokem

    Hate to say this but, the Social Security system as it is has given me the royal shaft. I'm a veteran who was medically discharged in 1999 after suffering a pulmonary embolism that nearly killed me and ended my military career. I was rated 70% disabled by the VA. I've been in and out of the hospital ever since for one issue or another. The last time I was able to work was in 2004. I never applied for SSD or SSI at the time as my wife was working and her income was more than enough to pay our expenses. Five years ago, She suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm which forced her to also retire from her profession.. Shortly afterwards, I was diagnosed with renal failure and put on dialysis. The VA then increased my disability rating to 100%. Since I haven't been able to work since 2004, I do not qualify under Social Security's rule of having "worked 5 of the last 10 years." My wife was denied SSD as well. Both of us spent years paying into Social Security. Now, when we need it, these little bureaucratic rules now prevent us from the help that we need, when we need it. We're both 60. Makes me wonder if we'll even be alive long enough to even be able to apply for Social Security benefits in 8 years.

      Why don't u apply for ss at 62, especially with all your health issues going on! We're not guaranteed tomorrow plus their will be major changes to ss coming in the future, like continuing to raise FRA and an overall reduction in benefits due to fewer workers paying into ss system.
