Harvey Peter Sackett on 02 Nov 24Financial hardship frequently adds to the challenges you face when diagnosed with a disabling physical or mental health condition preventing you from working. Disability benefits available through the Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income programs offer hope, but first, you must wait for approval of your claim. According to the Social Security Administration, it takes as much as eight months for an initial decision on disability applications. Fewer than one-third of applications are approved during the initial review. If your claim is denied, you may be forced to wait even longer while a disability lawyer appeals the denial of benefits. Appeals can take a year or longer before you receive a decision. The disability team at Sackett and Associates Law Firm, the premier disability lawyers in Northern California, wants you to know about income options while waiting for disability benefits. The following information explains several sources for financial help while waiting for disability benefits to be approved.
