Social Security Disabled Child Benefits

DO YOU HAVE A DISABLED CHILD?

Did you know that the Social Security Administration has a program that allows parents and/or guardians to receive benefits on behalf of their children to help assist them with the financial burden of raising a disabled child?

HOW TO QUALIFY?

The child must have a medically determinable physical or mental impairment or combination of impairments that result in marked and severe functional limitations and which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for at least 12 months.

HOW TO APPLY?

Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

You can complete the Child Disability Report online, but you must call 1-800-772-1213 or contact your local Social Security Office to set up an appointment to complete the SSI application in person or over the phone.

WHAT IF I AM DENIED?

Know that this does not mean that your child is not rightfully entitled to these benefits. Approximately 75% of all applicants are denied at the initial stages, yet the vast majority of those denied who hire representation go on to prevail in their claims. So if denied, you should immediately seek out competent legal representation as you generally have sixty (60) days from the date of your denial letter to appeal that decision.

Our attorneys have over 30 years of combined experience handling Social Security Disability claims and you do not pay us an attorney's fee unless we prevail in your claim.
