Welcome to Season 2, Episode 36 of Winning Isn't Easy: Social Security ®. In this episode, we'll dive into Hidden Gatekeeping Questions in Social Security Disability Cases.
A Social Security Disability case can be determined on more than medical records and diagnoses, as everyday activities, coping strategies, and attempts to keep working can influence how judges evaluate your limitations. In this episode of Winning Isn’t Easy, we explore the hidden gatekeeping questions that can shape a disability claim and why applicants may face unexpected challenges at a hearing. We examine how daily routines, part-time work, sheltered employment, and even emotional support animals can affect how the Social Security Administration views your ability to work. This episode breaks down how ordinary choices and efforts to manage symptoms can be used to question the severity of your limitations, and why understanding these hidden decision points matters. Whether you’re preparing a disability application, attending a hearing, or fighting a denial, this episode offers insight into navigating the evaluation process, avoiding common pitfalls, and showing how your daily struggles affect your ability to sustain full-time work.
In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:
One – Can Working After the Alleged Onset Date Destroy Your Social Security Disability Claim?
Two – “Woof, Woof!” Should the Use of an Emotional Support Dog Be Considered by a Social Security Administrative Law Judge in Deciding a Person’s Entitlement to Social Security Disability Benefits?
Three – Can Your Daily Coping Strategies Be Used Against You in a Social Security Disability Claim?
Whether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey. Don't miss it.
