If you live in Arizona and are unable to work due to a disability, you may be eligible for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. SSD is a federal program that provides financial assistance to disabled individuals who are unable to work. Here’s a quick guide on how to file for disability in AZ.
The first step to filing for disability in Arizona is to gather all of the necessary documentation. In order to qualify for SSD benefits, you must first meet the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) definition of “disabled.” To prove that you meet this criterion, you will need to include things like your medical records, proof of income, and any other supporting documentation that will help your case.
Once you have all of your documentation in order, the next step is to contact the Social Security Administration and file an application for benefits. The SSA will then review your case and make a determination on whether or not you are eligible for benefits.
If you are approved for disability benefits, you will begin receiving payments on a monthly basis. These payments will continue until you are no longer considered disabled by the SSA.
