Social Security

Most people who receive disability benefits are workers who qualify on their own records and meet the work and disability requirements we have just described. However, we want to point out some situations you may not know about:

• If You Are Blind Or Have Low Vision,
• If You Are The Worker's Widow Or Widower,
• Benefits For A Disabled Child,
• Disability Benefits For Wounded Warriors

Let's look at the other requirements:

• How Much Work Do You Need?
• What We Mean By "Disability."
• How We Decide If You Are Disabled.
