§ 26900 Disability Benefit Application

• •You can ask for disability money anytime you need it.
• •There’s no deadline to apply for this help.
• •The rule was updated in 1999 to make this clear.

If you get hurt at work and can’t walk for months, you might need money to pay bills.

You can ask the government for disability money right away or even later—whenever you need it. They won’t say no just because you didn’t ask on time.
