By examining trends and statistical advantages for claimants over 55, he explains how age affects the disability determination process. He delves into the influence of the grid rules or medical-vocational guidelines, which simplify the definition of 'disability' for those aged 55 and older, making it easier to qualify even with the ability to do light work. Jonathan also touches on the political pressures impacting the Social Security system and offers practical advice for those nearing 55 who are considering filing for disability. TAKE ACTION TODAY!
