Dave, It is a lot easier to get Social Security Disability once you get in your 60's, or even in your 50's, if you have only had jobs that call for basic manual skills, and you cannot do them any more.

People who might be disabled should almost always file a disability claim along with their retirement claim. There is no down side. You get the decreased retirement amount at first, but if you later win your disability claim, you get the difference between the two, and your monthly check is permanently raised.
