What are the qualifications to receive SSDI?
To qualify for SSDI you must meet the definition of disability. You must also have worked long enough and recently enough under Social Security to have the required work credits. The number of credits you need depends on your age and when you became disabled. Generally you need 20 credits earned in the last 10 years ending with the year you became disabled. You can earn a maximum of four work credits per year. However younger workers may qualify with fewer credits. Call us now to discuss your situation and eligibility based upon your work credits.
