Why should claimants ideally be referred to SSDC before an initial SSDI application is filed?
Any claimant can file their own SSDI application. However, with SSDC’s assistance, the quality of the information provided to Social Security will be much higher, and chances of an earlier award are thus greatly improved. Even if the initial application is denied, the quality of the data provided initially is important at the appeals levels. Furthermore, SSDC ensures that the confusion and level of bureaucracy associated with filing will be kept to a minimum for the claimant, and the LTD partner will be informed of any award.
