What are a "significant number" of jobs in the Carolinas? When you ask a doctor point blank "what is going on here/the problem"? And they seem to go around the question,dismiss it, don't care, or don't know, regards to Pain, but want to send you here and there for tests or treatment and prescrible pain killlers. Is there another way to direct the question to get a correct answer? |

The first question is a great one. Under the rules, you are disabled if you cannot perform your old work or a "significant number" of jobs. So, how many are a "significant number"? The answer to that question varies wildly depending on complex circumstances. If you fall under one of the "grids," which are categories in the regulations that describe certain sorts of cases, you must be found disabled even though you can physically handle several thousands of job types. But if you don't, the judge might be able to turn you down if you are only able to do a handful of jobs, that you will never be hired for as a practical matter. I cannot answer the second half of your question; it is a medical question, an important one. All I can suggest is that you keep searching for the answer outside the medical community as well as inside it. |

I recieved my SD in 2000, I since returned to college and recieved my Assoicates degree while drawing benifits. I then gained a part time job in 2004, and went on to draw benifits and worked part time for about a year. This was a part time desk job, then I used my degree and gained a job that was more physical. All the while still trying to better myself using the ticket to work. On this physical job my body broke down and I am not able to keep this job. My question is, how hard is it to to reieve benifits again after using the ticket to work program. The information says I have up to 5 years and still be able to reactivate my claim. I have major back pain and damage in the right leg. I also suffered from chronic depression and a lot of other things that got me my appointed SD with no second appeal. However I haven't really visited the doctor much in the past year as I have been trying to grind through the pain and try to make a better life for myself and wife. What is the process for the work to ticket, if i need to get back on my benifits? |
