Loss of Jobs and Benefits Increasing Applications for Social Security Disability

The Social Security Administration (SSA) may provide disability benefits if you suffer from a debilitating condition that makes it impossible for you to work. The SSA provides a listing of impairments that may qualify a sufferer for Social Security disability benefits under the following systems:

• Musculoskeletal;
• Special Senses and Speech;
• Respiratory;
• Cardiovascular;
• Digestive;
• Genitourinary;
• Hematological;
• Skin;
• Endocrine;
• Multiple Body Systems;
• Neurological;
• Mental;
• Malignant Neoplastic; and
• Immune System.

With the people of the United States greatly suffering from a loss of jobs and benefits, applications for Social Security disability benefits are on the rise. More people are seeking help from the government, which includes trying to obtain Social Security disability benefits.

Those who have been unsuccessful in finding a job or have lost their benefits, including unemployment benefits, see Social Security as a way to make ends meet.

With an already backlogged system, this increase in applications is likely to exacerbate the long waiting times experienced by Social Security disability applicants.
