Who can use this

  • Eligibility is partly based on work history, requiring applicants to have worked five years within the last decade and earned sufficient credits to be considered "insured." A severe disability that prevents work for at least 12 months or leads to death is also necessary, with periodic medical reviews to assess the ability to work.
