NEW TOOL HELPS PEOPLE COMPLETE DISABILITY FORM
Are you or someone you know planning to file for disability benefits?
There's a new tool to help. When an adult applies for disability benefits,
we complete a Disability Report (SSA-3368). The form helps us obtain
information about an applicant's condition, and is the key to obtaining
medical records. Now you can get tips right over the Internet on how to
best complete the 3368. Just click on any section of the form and you'll
get a "plain language" explanation of what we're looking for, why we need
the information, and how your answers help us decide if you can get
disability benefits. This new tool is your key to having the Disability
Report completed before your appointment. To take a look, visit
