Child Disability – prior to age 18

 

Social Security has separate and distinct listing requirements for children under 18.  It takes into consideration severe developmental delays as well as physical issues.  Children under 18 are eligible for the SSI program only and if accepted will be able to obtain Medicaid benefits.  Childhood disabilities can include the following:

 

-Growth Impairment

-Musculoskeletal System

-Special Senses and Speech

-Respiratory System

-Cardiovascular System

-Digestive System

-Genitourinary Impairments

-Hematological Disorders

-Skin Disorders

-Endocrine Disorders

-Impairments that Affect Multiple Body Systems

-Neurological

-Mental Disorders

-Malignant Neoplastic Diseases

-Immune System Disorders

 

Many times a Judge will want to see school records to see how your child’s illness or condition affects his or her social growth and school progress.  If your child is absent from school a lot because of his or her condition, this should have a positive impact upon the case.    Updated medical records are also extremely important.

 

If your child is found disabled, your local Social Security office will review you and your spouse’s income and resources to determine if you qualify for SSI from a non-medical standpoint, which is financial.  If you have too many resources or too much income, even if your child meets the requirements medically, you will not receive any money, which means there is no Medicaid through the disability program.


The maximum SSI payment is currently set at $674.00 per month and that amount can be reduced depending on the income and resources available to the child.

 

Once your child turns 18 years old, the case is usually reviewed by Social Security to determine whether the child still qualifies for disability.  Many benefits are cut off at this point because the adult requirements and child requirements are different.  If the benefits are stopped, you should file an appeal or if you missed the deadline, start over.

 

Disabled Children – between 18 and 22 years old

If you can prove that you became disabled between the ages of 18 and 22, and one of your parents is either disabled or deceased, it may be possible to receive SSD (Social Security Disability) using one of their work history record and credits.  Your case is still evaluated under the ADULT listings.
