Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a federally run benefits program that provides financial assistance to people are unable work due to a permanent disabling condition. For a Georgia resident to qualify for their benefits, their disability must have lasted or is expected to last for a minimum of 12 months and are unable to earn more than a $1000 per month. Another stipulation to receiving SSDI is that the applicant must have enough work credits. On average the applicant must have worked five of the past 10 years.

Social Security lawyers can also help prepare the person and their witnesses for their hearings.
