Critical Steps to Get Your Child Approved for SSI/SSDI in Order to Receive Cash Benefits, Tuition, Medical, and Other Benefits
Deborah McFadden, former U.S. Commissioner of Disabilities (1989–1993), was instrumental in writing and passing the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. She will tell you why getting your child approved for SSI/SSDI is like winning the Golden Ticket.
In Deborah’s session, you will get answers to questions such as:
- Can my child qualify for these programs if I have a high income?
- Is it true my child can get everything paid for including tuition, room/board, and books?
- Can my child go out of state for college?
- Can my child go to a school for technical training/certification?
- What if my child has a “hidden disability,” will he still qualify?
- What options do I have for funding my child’s education?
- If my child will not qualify for any loans from FAFSA, do I still need to apply?
- Can my child apply for SSI before he is 18 years old?
- Can my child work and still receive benefits?
