We have a 44 year old son with severe arthritis who is, in our opinion, disabled. Can he draw disability under our Social Security?
He could draw disability benefits only if his parent is retired or disabled, and the adult child became disabled before reaching the age of 21. Q. I filed for disability benefits and won. I have multiple impairments and thought I would win because of my severe arthritis, but I won because of my severe depression. Should I appeal this decision? I’m almost crippled because of the arthritis. Your situation is not uncommon, and it may be that the combination of your impairments resulted in the allowance which, in turn, resulted in your favorable decision. Your monthly benefit would not be affected regardless of which impairment was a result of the allowance, and the benefit was what you set out to gain, correct? But to answer your question: no, you cannot appeal the decision.
