Ways to apply for social security disability
To apply for SSD, you may file an online application, call the local Social Security Administration (SSA) office, or complete a paper application. While applying for the program may appear easy, proving you are disabled is not. SSA has multiple statutory regulations it must follow when making a disability determination. It is highly recommended that if you are serious about trying to obtain Social Security Disability or SSI you seek assistance from a qualified lawyer. When you first submit your SSDI application either online, by phone, or in person, the application will be forwarded to Disability Determination Services (DDS), which are federally-funded, state-run agencies.

This will let you know that the process is moving forward. Personal Information & Family Details: The beginning of the SSDI app...
