Use a Daily Diary to Help Win Your Social Security Disability Case.
One of the issues that plagues many people wishing to win their case to obtain Social Security benefits is that they often do not have enough medical evidence to back up their claims. One of the reasons is that many have been out of work nearly two years by the time their hearing date approaches and they have not had the funds to pay for individualized medical care from a private physician.

Sometimes It’s Okay to Cancel Your Social Security Disability Hearing.
Sometimes, it really is okay to cancel your Social Security disability hearing before it’s time to see the judge and explain your case. While this may seem like a setback, especially after you’ve waited so long to have your hearing in the first place, canceling may actually help your case in the future.

Why would anyone want to file for Social Security disability?
To be real honest, if you are under the age of 50, you better really have something wrong with you or a combination of a lot of really bad impairments. One of the steps in determining if someone is disabled, is that his or her condition must be severe. Anyone who is reading this, if anyone ever does and I’m only doing this for SEO points to my website, is going to say to themselves, “Oh yeah, my condition is definitely severe.” Well, good luck. Because for most of you, your condition is not severe enough to receive Social Security disability benefits.
