During the course of your Social Security disability case, SSA will send you dozens of forms. These forms include documents with titles like "Function Report-Adult," "Disability Report -Adult," "Work History Report," "Activities of Daily Living Report," "Pain Questionnaire."
Most of these forms are accompanied by a page or two of instructions that tell you nothing about what SSA really wants to know.
In today's episode I discuss these forms with my long time friend and colleague attorney Stephanie Joy of Joy Disability.
I met Stephanie through the Zoom Roundtable group she hosts on LinkedIn for Social Security disability attorneys and representatives.
In our discussion, Stephanie and I discuss the common mistakes disability applicants make when filling out forms and how your lawyer can assist you in better understanding what SSA really wants.
As a bonus for my podcast listeners, here is a link to a screen capture video I recorded about how I approach one of the most common forms you will see - Form SSA-3368, the Adult Disability Report. This recording is part of a library of forms I make available to my clients.
If you want more specifics, I have written a book called the Disability Answer Guide which provides examples of completed forms with suggested language.
SSA requires you to fill out dozens of forms as you pursue disability benefits and I hope that this episode will help you better understand what SSA wants.
