It’s important that you first apply. 

Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with your initial application for social security benefits for your child.  However, the process is fairly straightforward.

To apply for Social Security benefits for a disabled child, follow these steps: 
  • First, gather necessary documents like birth and medical records. 
  • Then, you can apply online through the Social Security Administration’s website or by calling their toll-free number to set up an appointment to apply over the phone or in person. 
  • During the application, provide detailed information about the child’s condition, medical treatments, and educational history. 

The SSA will review the application and medical records to determine eligibility. It’s important to be thorough and accurate in your application to help facilitate the process.
