Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to appeal a denied Social Security Disability claim in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, you generally have 60 days from the date you receive the denial notice to file an appeal. This time limit is strict, so it is important to act quickly. A lawyer can help you prepare the required paperwork and ensure you meet the deadline.
What medical evidence do I need for a Social Security Disability claim in Newburyport?
You need medical records that show your condition prevents you from working for at least 12 months. This includes doctor reports, test results, and treatment notes. Massachusetts law requires the Disability Determination Services to consider all evidence from your treating physicians.
Can I work part-time while my Social Security Disability claim is pending in Massachusetts?
You may be able to work part-time, but your earnings must stay below the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) limit, which in 2024 is $1,550 per month for non-blind individuals. If you earn more than this, the Social Security Administration may find you are not disabled. A lawyer can advise you on how part-time work affects your case.
