This is a very important point that also applies to Social Security Disability. You must pay into the system 5 out of the last 10 years to be eligible for Social Security Disability. If you do not, then you cannot get payments even if you are unable to work. You must look to SSI at that point and many people are not eligible for SSI because of household income or assets they hold.

Social Security Disability Is Rough
It is getting very difficult to win a Social Security Disability case.
The reason is that there is a backlash against the large number of filings and media reports of some judges in the past who have approved high percentages of cases.
Throw in the political climate of high budget deficits and scare tactics of Social Security running out of money.
This leads to some very tough times for people who applying for Social Security Disability.
It means you must be very vigilant in making sure that your case is as strong as it can be.
No drug use or alcohol abuse. If you have had a problem, then get treatment.
Go to the doctor as often as you can.
Tell the doctor about your problems and limitations.
Cultivate a good relationship with your doctor so that they can explain in detail your problems and the restrictions they cause.
Be prepared to testify truthfully, credibly, and in detail about how your conditions affect your daily activities.
Know what the standard is for proving you are disabled.
Make sure you can question the Vocational Expert in a way that persuades the Judge that you are disabled.
Do not go it alone. There is no reason to go in without an experienced Social Security Disability Attorney. It does not cost you anything up front, and it can make the difference between winning and losing.
