To qualify for Social Security Disability benefits, you must have worked long enough in jobs covered by Social Security. Additionally, you must have a medical condition that meets Social Security’s definition of disability. “Disability” under Social Security is based on your inability to work. The Social Security Administration consider you to be disabled if you cannot perform the same work that you did prior to becoming disabled, you cannot adjust to other work because of your medical condition AND your disability has lasted or is expected to last for at least one year or will result in death.
