From my head on social security benefits orlando
I am able to work but not at what I used to nor can I earn the same money I used to. Can I still file for SS benefits? The Social Security Administration grants Social security benefits based on a few considerations. Foremost of these is the extent of your disability as defined by the Social Security Administration. Under SSA rules, you are classified as disabled if you cannot work in the same job as before, and your condition prevents you from working at another job. You will also be considered disabled if your condition is expected to last for a period of one year or more OR if it is expected to result in your death.
