his family could not be paid
monthly benefits until he
reached age 50. The 1960
amendment to the social security

All disabled persons who
have never applied to have
their social securitv records

Generally, to qualify a person
must have worked under social
security for at least 5
years out of the 10 year period
ending when the disability
began. To be found disabled

a person must have a disability
so severe that he is unable
to do anv kind of work.
