Get Medical Documentation
It is very important to your claim that you provide medical documentation of your condition. See a doctor and get the paperwork you need to back your claim. In some circumstances, you may need to see a couple of doctors or specialists. Present documentation from each visit. Documentation from medical professionals will go far in helping get the benefits you are entitled to.
Be Detailed
When filing for disability benefits, it is very important that you are thorough. Give full details about any and all medical conditions and side effects. You must present a clear picture of how you are affected and to what extent. Some individuals are turned away because they are hesitant to “complain” and leave off vital information about their mental health, physical symptoms, and overall capacity. Do not fall into this group. Give detailed information and leave nothing off.
