People who cannot work for at least one year or who are terminally ill may be entitled to Social Security disability benefits. In order to receive these payments, they must be totally disabled. There are also certain earning requirements that must be met for the applicant to be eligible for benefits. Because the process can take three to five months to complete, Social Security disability benefits should be applied for as soon as the person knows he/she is disabled.
