Most people don’t think about collecting Social Security benefits until they have reached retirement age. They hope to work for many years before it is time to leave the job. Sadly, some people do not get to work as long as they want. They may suffer an injury that keeps them off the job, or become too ill to handle full time work. For many this happens well before retirement age.

While social security disability benefits are available to anyone regardless of age, in reality it is harder to get approved when you are younger. The SSA feels that most people under age fifty can be retrained to do another occupation. If an injury forces a person out of construction, then they can be retrained to work a desk job such as data entry. Some younger people have difficulty working any job fulltime, especially if their condition is psychologically based or if they are affected by everyday stress. An experienced disability social security attorney can review your medical records and help you file a strong SSI/SSD application for disability benefits even if you are well under fifty.

The 1930s were an important time in Tupelo, when two events happened that would forever shape the city. In 1934 Tupelo was the first city to be electrified by the new Tennessee Valley Authority. A year later, 1935, a baby who would grow to become one of the most electrifying entertainers, Elvis Presley was born in east Tupelo. Presley’s popularity is still so strong that even decades after his death his estate continues to earn income.
