The definition of disability for Social Security purposes is not the same that you’ll find in Webster’s dictionary.

At Cavey and Barrett we routinely see mistakes that are made by Social Security Disability applicants on their application. It is important to disregard any comments you make that “I can’t work”, “No one will hiring me”. Rather, they are interested in what’s called your functional limitations. What are functional limitations:

1. Can you sit, can you stand, can you bend, can you twist, can you walk, do you have to alternate positions?  
2. If so, how often long can you do any of these activities?
3. Will they interfere with your ability to function? If so, give examples.

The Social Security Administration wants proof that you have difficulty functioning that eliminates your ability to do the lightest job that you’ve had in the last fifteen years or limits your ability to work in a job that exists in the national economy.

It’s therefore, cruicial that you fill out all your Social Security Disability forms accurately.

Tampa Bay Social Security Disability attorney, Sharon Barrett, worked for the Social Security Administration as a staff attorney for many years. She reviewed many inaccurate or incomplete Social Security Disability applications whose claims have been denied. Those denials could have been prevented if the Social Security Disability examiner had been given the right information about functional limitations so that they could make a quick and accurate decision on the Social Security Disability claim.

The Social Security Administration isn’t interested in whether or not you can actually find a job in the labor market or whether anyone would hire you. This is a mythical analysis! As Cavey and Barrett explain in their book Your Right to Social Security Disability Benefits, the fifth and final question the Social Security Administration asks to determine whether or not you are entitled to Social Security Disability benefits is whether you have the ability to perform other types of work considering your physical capabilities, age, medical condition and education.

If it’s determined that your Residual Functional Capacity is so limited that you can’t do your past relevant or other work activity in the national economy, you will be found to be disabled by the Social Security Administration.
