Go to your social security office (they're the ones that pay disabilties). And they'll file the paper work for you. It's a 120 day process. Meaning that if you are approved it will take 4 mos., to get your 1st. check. But, it will be retroactive from the day that you filed.Other words, your 1st. check will be for 4 mos. pay.

you will call the ss office and ask them to send out a packet...you will fill the packet out three times because most the time they deny you.
I say when you've been denied once, see if an attorney will help you. It is done to where you pay the attorney once the settlement is done. *usually 30% of your settlement.
wish it weren't this way, but leave it to the goverment....they like the red tape...makes them feel like their job is important.
good luck!

Talk to your social security office. It can take 3-4 months to take affect though.
