One of the most frustrating and stressful things about applying for Social Security Disability Benefits is waiting for a decision about whether or not you will receive benefits. Obtaining benefits can be a long and complex process, but there are some tips to make the claim process faster.
Submitting your application for disability claim
First of all, provide complete information with your application. Include all medical and other types of treatment for the past 3-5 years including names of providers and clinics or hospitals.
Prioritize the disability claim process and relevant appointments:
Complete all forms and return all calls right away. Prioritize attending all appointments that are scheduled for you. If you miss an appointment it can be several weeks to reschedule.
