Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to appeal a denied disability claim in Commerce?
In California, you generally have 60 days from the date of the denial notice to file an appeal with the Social Security Administration. Missing this deadline can result in having to start the application process over. A lawyer can help ensure your appeal is filed on time.
What is the difference between SSDI and SSI in California?
SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) is based on your work history and taxes paid, while SSI (Supplemental Security Income) is a needs-based program for people with limited income and resources. Both programs require medical proof of disability. A lawyer can help determine which program you qualify for.
