Ssi Disability Benefits Concerns

Summary

Expressing fear of work due to your disability to your doctor should not automatically result in the loss of your SSI disability benefits. Benefits are determined based on your ability to engage in substantial gainful activity. If your doctor provides documentation stating that you cannot work due to your disability, it should help maintain your SSI benefits. The Social Security Administration (SSA) reviews medical evidence to determine eligibility for benefits. If you have documentation from your doctor stating that you are unable to work due to your disability, it should support your continued eligibility for SSI benefits. The Social Security Administration relies heavily on medical evidence to make determinations.
