So true

I feel your pain! I have spinal stenosis. Been in pain since I was like 10 yrs old. Denied 2 x!! And I did go homeless in that time. Where I then DID become a drug addict. Been clean for over a decade. STILL denied 2 years ago! Sorry for you as well!

I have had the same experience with social security but know people that are perfectly fine and on the shit

@@chrisbee5355 Damn, Chris, I am so sorry to hear that. Hearing what they forced you to go through just pisses me off even more.Ive all but given up and rely on a friend and God to take care of me, but I hope you get yours sooner than later. They really have some of society's worst running this thing, and that's all according to plan!

@@anthonywildman2015 Yeah I know people that got approved as well, but if they intentionally keep even one person that deserves it from getting it, then the system is broken. :(

Agree. My husband was diagnosed with autism at age 3 and to reinstate his disability later in life, we were able to give them hundreds and hundreds of records and paperwork from spanning over 20 some years that all consistently and CONSTANTLY talked about his autism.

I showed thim all my medical records and they still denied me for 14 years. My neck was fused, I was on a 5 lb limit Social Security doctor said I could lift 25 lb my doctors told them no way I was on a 5 lb limit. I can no longer do my normal job which was nursing lifting heavy patients. So you tell me plus I have Osteo arthritis in my back so you tell me okay I'll this is written documentation and they still denied me for 14 years they didn't go back and pay me for 14 years they only paid me for one year a back pay and I had to fight him for that also The social security system is totally corrupt okay if you don't get the right judge and the right people they will deny you and deny you and deny you and deny you that is a fact

So given what you said in the video, what do you think my chances are for SSDI approval with my age 63, HIV, High Blood Pressure and diabetic neuropathy?

@@thebootielover update did you get ssdi ?

@@goldstandard7046 Had my ALJ hearing 3 mo ago. My SSA account still says hearing. SMGDH. The ALJ ask my Lawyer to provide her a cope of my last check stub show my wages to verify my on set date.

He was straight to.the point but very relevant for all of us.

Thanks to all our

Thanks

From the beginning i have been consistent in all my disability issues. I reported my knees my ankles and my wrists are damaged plus my vision and schizophrenia. Is disabilities ive suffered from. They only approved me for my wrists having torn ligaments and nerve damage. They gave me a year review and i had to go to a one on one hearing and they denied me. I asked for reconsideration and continueation of benefits a little before that hearing i was hospitalized for mental health crisis. I had even had xrays of how bad my joints looked. They admitted to me that the only way i can continue to receive my benefits is to get on my antipsychotics and coincidentally have proof of keeping my mental health appointments. This is the year of my second review hearing and now i think i have %50 chance of them stopping my benefits. So now i am waiting to go to another hearing and a little worried because to them i am just a number. I just don't understand why the original reason they approved me isn't good reason enough to keep getting my benefits without having to do hearings if i and my Dr's know i have not improved and i never will improve.😞

@FRANCISCO POLLARDO well that's a crock of shit

i went to jail for 3 months ...and I went to retrieve my ssi payment for November 2018 and my check wasn't there....what happened..i was tols by social security that u had to go to jail do a year for your check to be stopped......my question is this ...where is my ssi check....I need the money my rent is due....I don't want to be evicted...Can anyone help me....I urgently need someone's advise...or information about what to do or whom I should speak with.....

Same case for me except for the surgery and I never received it even though I did everything right!

@@woodrowwilson8389 your check stops after you are in jail for 30 days. You then have to contact Social Security Administration to get your check again.

Don Dressel what state and what Lawyer

Back pay there's even people saying they can't even get back pay

Sharon Ribando I am praying for you and ur family members I'm sooo sorry hunni but my son was denied and he have seizure and I am bout to lose my job bcuz I have pick him up ever time he has one. Plus I been denied twice I'm going to see my lawyer tomorrow I dnt understand the system

Damn 175k to homelessness?? No disrespect but sounds like mismanagement of money

@@Raine747 um really? Have you heard of Premiums, Medical Bills? You have that typical Prejudice behavior. I can't say I'm surprised. I expect it. Jeez!

I went through the same thing 2 years ago when new president took office. If your on social security and this has not happened to you yet just wait. Social security told me they are randomly picking people to prove disability after all over been on it since 2007 . We all have to go through reviews and it is extremely stressful. I have a mental disability and they sent me to a new doctor even though I see my doctor for mental health every month and have a case manager I see weekly. I have been in the hospital several times since getting ssdi so the fact is they had PLENTY of documentation.

Same thing is happening to me and it has been an emotional rollercoaster. I am just so exhausted of it all. I feel like I am being penalized for working and trying to get my life together again. How do they expect people to escape the system when they have all of these roadblocks...

Survivor believe me i know exactly how it is for total of few months now the admiditrations keeps threating my Brothers life they set up a doctors appointnents for him BUT the location is waaay to far i told them and they dont care at all so i decide to tell them hes very very sick BUT us true BUT a week later they continúe to threating his life and they just did it again today i called the police BUT they wont do nothing about it

1 Survivor they always say they sent me letters and I never get them. I even had an all out argument with my postal carrier. No I feel bad cuz he probably isn’t the problem

True.A lot of this process seems to involve optics, or 'showmanship'.Having medical records handy (as well as any other supporting documents) is not only common sense, but it will help you get what you deserve.It's like anything else, you have to play the game.I like this lawyer's no BS approach.

+Dawn S A friend of yours was denied even though she died of cancer?

Yes. A couple of months after she died of lung cancer her husband got the letter saying she was denied. He had sent in a death certificate. He went up to the office and asked them in person if they ever look at the paper work that is sent to them? It was in there. Idiots.

soft tissue damage is hard to prove , I have a c-4-5 herniated discs an lower back problems sciatic nerve pain . Watch the Napason , they ruined my kidneys . I was taking 3 a day for pain cuz they wouldn't give me nothing for pain an almost killed me .

Horrible , I feel for all you fellow Americas , but we Americans send 100 Of billions of out Tax money to Israel , we pay for their Health care, we pay for their university Degree to become Doctors or Chemist, we pay for the new resettlement with a new house on stolen land ,and all free with no interest Applied , we pay for that also , but ,when we get Hurt in a accident , the other Scanverger ''Lawyers'' coming down from the sky smelling%33 for your settlement Money .

Oh that SICK

Same thing with my husband. He was diagnosed at age THREE with autism and when he turned 18, he lost his benefits. Luckily now in his 20s, he was able to go back and give them hundreds and hundreds of records and paperwork spanning over 20 plus years since he was diagnosed so young.

Any update on the adult process for when he turned 18? How did you have him fill out the function report? Any info appreciated, in same boat.

@@Myearthfamily we still waiting

It’s over 1.5 years for this state on average. Unfortunately 5 months to a year is one of the luckier wait times.

social services can help you or go to the VA ! I hope that helps you bro

+ justaman 6972 you sure said a mouthful of the truth

Sell drugs that’s what I do the system totally failed me!

justaman6972 Go to the Doctor anyway! This is how you’ll build up medical records to prove your disability. When approved, Medicare can help pay your medical costs. If you do nothing, your situation will remain as is.

@@mrs.jack-string2420 I was denied for 5yrs. I finally had to get on food stamps and medical.. Once I did that medicaid paid for my dr. got all the tests done and talk to a lawyer that only works on SS disability.

Steven Erickson What was your disability, if you do not mind my asking. And Where there two years of appeals? Did you reapply Or did you just leave the country in middle of application?

I don't want to be picky but you will confuse people by referring to it as ssa. It is either SS or SSDI

You can't say ALL applications, I applied in May and had my first check in August of the same year.

So where is this written as a policy? Just something that is whispered around?

I should've mentioned this is for long term disability applications. edit: And I’m sure there are a few exceptions. But very few.

It’s not like this for everybody . Many people apply and six months later they’re approved based on their documentation.

Social Security Disability open Saturday

Kerry Fitts What are you trying to say that 4 comments failed to?

Moving slow on your claim incentivizes you to go out and work for yourself. And if you have no ambition. You deserve no money!!!!!

I don’t have children or am I pregnant and was approved for Medicaid. Sorry for your luck though.

Face Shredder if you were approved it's probably because you're a minority.

Boneskullzy I am not a minority. I’m a white female, I’m also 24 years old and very physically/mentally ill. It is suppose to be challenging to get any types of benefits. This is because it cancels out people that don’t need it, to people that actually need it. My doctor encouraged me after 2 years of suffering. So I reluctantly did. I was accepted on my FIRST application for all of my benefits I applied for because I am truly ill and I need medical care for my illnesses. The system is suppose to be hard to discourage non medically ill people that are frauds. If you have strong support and accurate medical documents that fulfill their needs as being “disabled” you will be accepted. Also I’d like to point out Medicaid is a needy base program for low income individuals. So if you’re receiving/or have any kind of money above what they consider poverty levels you will not be accepted for the NEED base program.

Boneskullzy I am someone with no kids, no income, VERY young and NOT a minority. I was accepted almost instantly(5months). I’m one of the 33% accepted first application. Not because I was pregnant or a female or a minority or my age but because I’m actually disabled. You guys need to understand what your medical records have everything to do with being accepted or not. If it isn’t adequate you’re not getting accepted. Even if doctors supports your claim but doesn’t properly keep records of your symptoms and issues, you won’t get accepted. All matters what is on that medical record and if you are able to go to continued treatment.

I'm 23 I have cp in my legs & work got really hard because all the walking & standing & I went to scottish rite hospital in dallas for check ups & surgeries till I was 17 but that was the hospitals age limit I'm trying to get on disability though

@@kathrynmerenda9435 I feel for you

@@michaelnippert945 i find out after Christmas so fingers crossed

I can relate I told my Dr I was after 5 years he rolled his eyes.

will you eventually no longer be disabled if you stay at part time over a period of time? should people go back full time if they decide to go back to work or is part time ok for a while?

Alcohol and drugs do not count as SS disabilities

So sad to hear Satan is surrounding you trying to kill u

Miles Away omg that’s halirous! People really would rather but I’m not one of em.

Grab a bottle of pills with that drink.

Man it depends.if you have serious spine issues I don't see how you can function and work

Maybe in certain situations, it is, but not in others. Firstly, some Employers will not hire you if they see a (visual disability). It is discrimination but it is hard to prove. They see you as a liability vs an asset. Secondly a Man with Mental illness was told to "go to work". He eventually did and killed someone on the job. I don't know about you but if someone is Mentally ill. I'd prefer them to get disability and not work alongside me, untreated.

+D Waskow Thank you for watching!

paul-stanley delorme we’re not in Canada we’re in the USA

Tony, that's why he specified that he was talking about Canada.

lol

Arent they all drunks there anyways

Easy?! Are you kidding!? I have 5 health conditions and physical and have a hard time getting it. Plus they barley give you any money.

Yeah, so I just tried to get some info from your site and they won't even tell me what states you serve in without making an appointment and giving you my name and phone number. That's too invasive. I got enuf agencies crawling up my ass, I don't need this. Please consider giving more basic info on your site so as to prevent this kind of problem. For someone with PTSD, asking them to trust you is like asking for a snake to prance like a pony.

You can do it on your own. Just respond to all mail that S.S.I sends to you. Be upfront and honest with them. Good luck.

I couldn’t have said it better myself! A lot of people will blame it on the attorney but all attorneys I know only get paid if you win and then that comes out of your back pay like he said

FIBRO WARRIOR Hey warrior, your story really hit home with me. Most people will never experience the hell n pain n fear of not being able to fend for yourself. I had 2 TBIs n my spine is half hardware also n a ADR at l4l5, that a artificial disc replacement for those wondering. When things go south most folks you thought were friends you won't ever see again. An those very few you do, avoid you at all costs. I don't need anyone's pity, but I would take your prayers. You got a really rough road warrior. I too worked my ass off my whole life, ranching, farrier, heavy equipmenMeV

Warrior, got cut off. Anyhow, meant heavy equipment field mechanic n worked 70hrs a week plus travel n then shod horses some nights till midnight at times. After going SSD which I fought not to get, but am veryyy thankful I did now n give Jesus all the credit to help my family n myself. After a few yrs, my wife of 25 yrs left for work as my youngst son left for college. An she never came home n I never saw it coming. Guess when the sex n good times end, most ladies find another hard one n good times. It took 5 yrs to divorce n cost me 600k n been 10yrs n still not done paying her. I have exhausted most of my funds n struggle to make ends met. While she builds her million dollar easy life. I still love her very much, but she's a total stranger today. I don't know how someone can change so fast n care nothing of the hurt. But my boys are good, one a USN SOF ODA, n youngst is a MD now. Very proud of them both. Not sure why I am saying all this. 🙈🐸😜😝 I praise God everyday for saving my life, as being a Paradog n warfare didn't help either. If it wasn't for SSD, I would go out on the deck. You must be a extremely tough soul I suspect warrior. I couldn't live like you got it bad, hands down bad. 🤕😰. Some nights I pray n ask God why he saves my worthless life, as I have 7 heart stents (3) in the widow maker. They nuked it last month, costs 94k for 20 minutes of work n 8 days in hosp. But, I have 2 really sweet little taco doggers n now a kitten that thinks she's a dog too. I always had big German Sheperds before, lol. An the fact I got 3 adopted gkids n being a grandpappy is good stuff. N they do certainly need a pappy too. Maybe that's why? Hang in there warrior, I will keep you in my prayers too. You are one tough warrior for sure. If by chance you don't know Jesus, I'd look into it as its sure helped my life n I look to be in His Presence one day soon. John 3:16. Later, Ty

Ty Clark --- Thank you very much for your comments. I really enjoyed them !!

TItus Taylor how did your case go?

I won my case and did not even have 2 go in front of judge

God bless

I go in front of a judge on monday😣

I am wishing you the best please let me know the outcome.

More delays in approval.

Oh yes

It's hard to say because you got more people that's legit than faking and then the people that's legit or is not even getting approved waiting on approval died from cancer that's sick

@@blindsey1043 that’s so true on that

It took me 14 years

did you get back pay for the 4 years you waited?

I only got 1 year of back pay. And then they only gave me like 6k and that was all when I asked about the other amount they didn't answer me at all

Same here 2014/ May 13 2020 and penalized for one year I will get back paid next year on September ?????2021 y hope.

Took me 4 yrs too....and couldn't get physical 4points away and I had lesions all over me....

So given what you said in the video, what do you think my chances are for SSDI approval with my age 63, HIV, High Blood Pressure and diabetic neuropathy?

Tin Lizzie Getting the right Lawyer is a must. I have made some bad decisions in my life. But God gave me a great Lawyer and it seemed my Judge liked and respected. I had been under a doctor's care for chronic pain and still worked a hard outside job for six years after I was in a terrible Auto accident. I was miserable and had no Quality of life working in terrible pain. Also the person that researched my work history said I had a excellent work history working very demanding physical job's. This man is describing the exact things that helped me and also I was diagnosed a suffer depressive because of the hell I went through and I was a single man and all I can say is God was there with me. And my dog kept me from suicide because I went through a tough time.

Tin Lizzie REALLY???.....I got mine approved in 5 months from the time I applied online with... NO LAWYER!!! the real trick is really be disabled!!!

This is for I did you have a doctor a doctor can get your benefits in a week if he feels like you have to see a state phsycologist and a doctor if that's all that's on your record you ain't gonna get shit that's why you build a medical record if the judge sees that are going to see your doctor regular and a phsycologist he will not look at what the state doctors say also I think you are full of shit that you applied online and got it in six months

dericdomino i think you were replying to my comment that i got my disablity in 6 months after applying online....well it doesnt really matter what you think i'm full of because that's how long it took....😝😝😝😝

+Kurt Sherrick I'm glad to hear things worked out that way for you it's great to hear a good ending to a rough life experience because most of the time people that don't deserve good things to happen is who get the good things You just gave me hope because what I'm going through is very similar to your story except my past jobs were mostly retail jobs and fast food jobs

@Day Man i feel bad it should not be a challenge to get this if you have a legi claim i wouldbe mad

Thanks for serving us. You are only getting your just reward for it in that they rubber stamped your paperwork. I went to at least three of their doctors and the last one was my best evidence proving my case. I simply took all my meds exactly as prescribed rather than leaving some off so I could be aware of the situation and have a sensible memory of what the doctor did and said. They write all they observe down about each patient as a matter of fact. No matter what their specialty is they are experts at reading body language and seeing possible indicating behaviours as they develop a diagnosis of their own. I was too sleepy to fill the paperwork out without some assistance and went to sleep waiting in the exam room. The doctor had to wake me when he finally came. I could not function well enough to do the things he asked properly. I was not able to stay balanced during the standing parts of his exam. I saw an orthopedic dr. for them last even though my disability was not physical in nature he told me I could not work due to my meds I was on at the time. I know he put it in his report as my Attorney told me it was a - for ssdi and a plus for my case. Almost three years and broke and very deep in credit card debt after filing I finally got a hearing and was approved. I have been audited several times but after 50 they only say I am not going to be having to audited. Now my physical issues would keep me from being able to perform the tasks necessary to work in my craft. Some people simply get approved after the six month wait and never get denied. Your VA and discharge on full disability made you impossible to deny. Otherwise many people angry,disillusioned or acting originally that are denied are not willing to sell their investments and spend all their savings only to end up ass deep in debt just from living and paying cobra insurance, I did but then I had no alternative either. I still have my home but the cost of living has eroded my money so much now I am presently deep in debt again. It is all unsecured debt so if the checks stop I will start shredding all the paper presentments and let others worry how they will pay as they sure cant get any money without a lein or until I get paid. Best wishes to all who really need to collect what you yourselves have paid into the system.

Can you go into more detail ? What was your medical condition mine's is PTSD related to service connection 100% disabled veteran stay getting denied major depressive disorder OCD

Starting again. By aplying again not do . may loose the money . while been waiting from that first aplication of ssdi case . the lawers know the paper work form that is to be sent in to court ..

I was approved second time around at age 28. No lawyer either time. Bipolar, ptsd

Applyed in July got mine in Feb following, never denied no lawyer just medical records and good social worker. Its only 750 a month so nobody will get rich getting bennifits. Back pay only goes back 1 year and they hate giving that to you, you still have to fight to get that and they will let anyone redirect your payments, then blame you. I'm still waiting to get back April and Mays money due to workers letting scammers steal my bennifits won't tell me who did it, you can bet if you owe them they'll waist no time getting it from your bank. Watch your deposits check them every now and then, it's not going to be available to us citizens much longer after trump gets his dirty little hands on the as fund anyway, usa has a thief in office and he has no end to his greed and corruption. Eat cat food will be your retirement. Let the sick and poor suffer the GOP way.

blueagle1100 I've heard that also, blueagle. That's why I didn't get an attorney. I'm just trying to go through this on my own. I have an appointment with an administrative Law Judge in September. I've already been denied once.

The best thing (IMO) and with my experience is to have a good health professional on your side. It also is a big help to ACTUALLY have a health problem.

blueagle1100 yes I am on disability I am 29 got put on it 10 years ago I have helped many people out but yet myself please never underestimate ur self I have a stroke that gave me left side nerves issues mental is a big part about how people make comments find good people it’s hard but it’s on u and I to seek more better company in this losing relationships and man make thing are just that survival is key keep applying in time you will get it better yet ask if you have a open bank account if you do than you will receive disability or ssi remember it like yesterday for it to open no lawyer needed took me 4 years

blueagle1100 I never needed an aterny to get my SSI I was disabled as a child at 5 for mental disabilitys. But my sister sherry was different she had proof and aplied again and again and was denied. Got an eterny and he got it approved at the first time. It all depends on the eterny. If you have a shitty one it could delay it. But if you got one who is good he or she can work wounders.

Thank you for your question. You present a situation that faces a large majority of Americans today, unfortunately. Until such time as you either are eligible for health insurance, Medicaid or Medicare, unfortunately, you will most likely either have to private pay with the physicians or you will have to get in with a free/low cost medical clinic. We regularly have clients who are able to get treatment at free/low cost clinics until they are approved for SSI/SSDI benefits and are able to get Medicaid or Medicare.

you can now. Obama said so. (lol)

Dave Dalton I couldn't even afford Obamacare. I believe I was penalized for that on my income taxes earlier this year. I only end up with $5 or $10 to my name from paycheck to paycheck (I am only able to work part time). Many act as if it is easier to get disability if you are over 50, but I'm almost 55 and I still got denied. Now I have to go to a Administrative Law Judge in September.

good point!

You can go to any emergency room for help, and you can not be turned away. Also isn't this Obama care just great. NOT it is by far one of the worst things ever done. Obama totally lied to everyone about it just to help himself get elected. My wife works in the medical field and we everyday the pain of dealing with Obama care has created.

SunnySinclair1979 Did you keep seeing a medical doctor while you were working?

Jeff Raposo e

Did you have an attorney? There’s something wrong here

The Washington Post did an article on ssi and ssdi this week. They do turn down very disabled people as the system is extremely exteremel broken. I pray you get approved. Contact ur senator if possible. Its concerning that they turn down ppl with disabilities. its not fair.

My vision is to the point that the DMV wants to driver test me every 2 years.
