My disability is temporary. Am I still eligible for Social Security disability?

To qualify under Social Security’s regulations, you must have a disability that has lasted for 12 months or more, is expected to last for 12 months or more, or is expected to result in death.

(This is only a general overview. Qualifying for Social Security disability benefits is subject to a long and complex set of rules and regulations. For advice on your particular situation, contact Nash Disability Law.)
