What Will Social Security Ask Me?


When you have your Social Security Disability Hearing it helps to know what questions the Judge will ask.

The Social Security Judge will ask you what problems keep you from working.

What the doctors are doing for your treatment.

How your medications are working?

What side effects they cause.

What limitations you have.

What are your daily activities?

What kind of chores are you able to do?

What was your past work in the last 15 years?

Have you been receiving unemployment benefits?

Why can’t you work a simple, low stress job.

The focus will be on how your condition limits your abilities.

These are only some of the questions the Social Security Disability Judge will ask.
