Learn The NEW RULE About Your Past Work That Can SPEED Up Your SSDI Claim!

In this live podcast, we dive into a recent final rule from the Social Security Administration (SSA) that affects how past relevant work (PRW) is assessed for SSDI and SSI claims, starting June 8th. The notable changes include shortening the review period for work history from 15 years to just 5 years and excluding jobs that lasted less than 30 days from evaluation. These adjustments aim to simplify the application process, speed up processing times, and focus on recent, relevant work experience, ultimately benefiting claimants. We also discuss the pushback against this rule and demystify some common misconceptions that claimants and their representatives often have, including how it affects expedited vocational assessments and the ongoing importance of vocational experts.
