How long do I have to appeal a denied claim in Florida?
You have 60 days from the date you receive the denial letter to file an appeal. This deadline is strict and cannot be extended. A lawyer can help ensure your appeal is filed on time.
What are the basic requirements for SSDI in Florida?
You must have worked enough years to earn sufficient work credits and have a medical condition that prevents you from working for at least 12 months or is expected to result in death. The condition must meet Social Security's definition of disability.
