I hope you never have to go to SSI disability.

That said, I am disabled and have applied. The problem for me is that I can't afford to go to the number of Doctors needed to affirm it. As much as I have tried I see no way I'll ever get it.

I really don't know how all these people qualified...but for me, I haven't.

Stay healthy and if not, well, be prepared to jump through hoops you can't begin to imagine, and then be turned down.

I'm 61, and have paid into the "system" since I was 14. I'm not trying to get "free" shit from anyone.

The SSI Disability system is nothing more than a lawyer employment routine.

Talking with someone who works within the SS, initial claims are ALWAYS rejected. Re-application is routine, six to eight months was the norm with the attorney taking 40% of that amount. The attorneys DONT WANT anybody getting it on the first pass, cause they can’t get a massive rake out of the first payment. Federal law is written to insure these lawyers get their extortion.

Your not alone...

My wife has a laundry list of physical issues and a few minor mental problems (read my post history for more info)

If not for the fact that I can produce a income while this whole mess plays out she would be screwed.

I have seen the statements from the insurance company for the care and tests shes been given to help prove this case...

No way in heck I could pay out of pocket for that.

I take it you can’t qualify for Medicaid?
