How to Qualify for Disability | Social Security Administration's 5-Step Eligibility Criteria for SSD

"How do I qualify for disability?" It's one of the most common questions our disability lawyers are asked. In this video, disability attorney and Board-Certified Specialist in Social Security Disability Scott Scurfield shares how to qualify for disability benefits, based on the Social Security Administration's 5-step sequential analysis. Your eligibility for disability is based on 5 important questions:
1. Are you currently working?
2. Do you have a diagnosis?
3. Do you meet a "listing"?
4. Are you able to perform a job that you've held in the last 15 years with your "Residual Functional Capacity"?
5. Are you able to perform another job with your "Residual Functional Capacity"?
Depending on the answers to the questions above, you may be eligible for disability. This video is designed to help answer the question, "Am I eligible for disability benefits?"
