Frequently Asked Questions
What does a social security disability lawyer in Portage do?
A social security disability lawyer helps you prepare and file your application for SSDI or SSI benefits. They gather medical records, complete required forms, and represent you at hearings before an administrative law judge. In Michigan, they can also help with appeals if your initial claim is denied.
How long do I have to appeal a denial in Michigan?
In Michigan, you generally have 60 days from the date of the denial letter to file a request for reconsideration or appeal. Missing this deadline can result in losing your right to benefits, so it is important to act quickly. A lawyer can help ensure your appeal is filed on time.
What are the residency requirements for SSDI in Michigan?
There are no specific Michigan residency requirements for SSDI, but you must have worked enough years in jobs covered by Social Security. For SSI, you must live in the United States and meet income and resource limits. A Portage lawyer can review your work history and eligibility.
