Your Guide to Social Security Disability Benefits

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is responsible for administering two primary federal disability insurance programs. Disabled individuals in Indiana may be entitled to financial support through one of the following:

• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a federally run disability insurance program funded through payroll tax contributions. Not everyone is automatically covered by SSDI. Instead, Indiana workers must pay a sufficient amount into the system to be eligible for benefits.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI): Unlike SSDI, the other federal disability insurance program, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), carries no work history requirement. Eligibility is based strictly on need. As a consequence, SSI disability claims are subject to very strict financial eligibility requirements.

How to Appeal a Social Security Disability Denial in Indiana

An SSDI or SSI denial is a source of tremendous frustration and hardship. It is also relatively common. In fact, official government data confirms that nearly two-thirds of initial Social Security disability claims are denied. The good news is that many of these rejections are overturned on appeal. If your Social Security disability claim was denied in Indiana, it is imperative that you take swift action to protect your ability to appeal. You must act before the deadline expires. There are four levels to the Social Security disability appeals process:

1. Reconsideration of Your Application: Within 60 days of receiving a disability denial letter, you should submit a request for reconsideration. A reconsideration is a second, fresh look at your application for benefit. Notably, an experienced Indiana disability appeals lawyer can help you provide the additional (new) evidence you need to get a better result.
2. Hearing Before an ALJ: If your initial application was denied and your request for reconsideration was denied, you should seek a hearing before an administrative law judge. An ALJ is independent of the SSA and has the authority to award disability benefits to qualified applicants.
3. Social Security Appeals Council: If an administrative judge denies your claim, you can file a petition for a hearing before the full appeals council. The council must review and evaluate your request for a hearing, though it is not legally required to grant it.
4. Federal Disability Litigation: Finally, once all other avenues for relief have been exhausted, you can file a Social Security disability lawsuit. While only a small number of SSDI or SSI appeals make it this far in the process, it is a remedy that you have available.
