The Importance of Consistency in Disability (SSD) Claims with Social Security
When applying for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, one of the most critical factors that can determine the success of your claim is consistency. The Social Security Administration (SSA) examines every detail of your application, and even small discrepancies can raise questions about your eligibility.
The attorneys at Casa de la Justicia 1 800 840 4040, we understand how intimidating this process can feel, and we are here to help you navigate every step of the way.
Understanding Consistency in SSD Claims and How it Affects the Review Process
Consistency means that all the information in your application, medical records, and supporting documents aligns. Social Security relies heavily on this alignment to determine your eligibility. For example, if your doctor’s notes state that you cannot stand for long periods, but your application says you perform light physical work daily, this could raise concerns and the SSA might question your credibility. Social Security looks for patterns and clarity in your documents, which is why consistent details are crucial.
When reviewing your claim, the SSA compares all the information you submit across multiple forms, reports, and interviews. When your paperwork tells one cohesive story, it strengthens your case and builds trust. At Casa de la Justicia, our experienced team reviews your records carefully to ensure they align and present a strong, consistent case to the SSA, giving you the best chance at approval.
Common Areas of Inconsistency and How it Can Harm Your Claim
One of the most common issues applicants face is inconsistencies in medical documentation. Like previously mentioned as an example, if one doctor mentions you cannot lift heavy objects while another states you can, it creates confusion. Inaccurate or exaggerated descriptions of work limitations or daily activities are another common problem. Even minor differences between what you write in forms and what you say during interviews can raise red flags.
Contradictory details in your application can cause significant delays or denials, and even give the impression that you may be exaggerating or fabricating parts of your claim. This skepticism could lead to requests for additional evidence, further delaying the process. For instance, if your work history on the application doesn’t match what’s on record with the IRS, Social Security may question the validity of your claim.
In extreme cases, your claim could be denied outright, forcing you to appeal and restart a lengthy process.
These inconsistencies are not always the fault of the applicant. Sometimes, medical professionals record information differently, or applicants may unintentionally forget details. At Casa de la Justicia, we specialize in identifying and resolving these inconsistencies before they become a problem for your claim. Our legal team ensures all information is cohesive and accurately reflects your circumstances.
