Missing Benefits of Liberalized Disability Law

William Harwood reports a new Social Security protection could boost disability payments up to 206.10 monthly for hundreds of thousands if they act before June 30. The 1954 change allows freezing records to exclude disability years, increasing future benefits and enabling earlier retirement for some. Eligibility targets two groups: 50 and older already applying now, and under 50 protecting future rights. Applications should be made in person, by letter, or by phone, before June 30. The rules require at least five years of covered work, with years spread over prior periods, and a disability onset before June 30 to maximize gains.
