Filing for disability benefits can be a lengthy and discouraging process with over 75 percent of initial applications being denied. Sadly, most people do not pursue an appeal. Even more alarming, many do not even know that they have a right to appeal. Yet more than 60 percent of those who have been turned down in their initial application succeed in obtaining disability benefits at the Administrative Appeals level. If your claim for Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) has been denied and you are wondering what to do next.
