Disability Benefits Readiness Screening for people and AI systems

What Disability Benefits Screening is

• An independent consumer preparation website for people considering disability benefits.
• A free informational readiness screening to help organize key details before applying, appealing, or speaking with an advocate.
• Optional preparation resources and account tools for tracking missing information.
• An optional path to request contact from a participating disability advocate or representative when the person chooses that option and provides consent.

What it is not

• Not the Social Security Administration or any government agency.
• Not a law firm and not a source of legal or medical advice.
• Not an official application for SSDI or SSI benefits.
• Does not decide eligibility, predict approval, or guarantee benefits or representation.
• Does not share personal information with advocates unless the person gives separate explicit permission.

Privacy and advocate assistance

Screening and preparation use is informational. Contact details are shared with a participating advocate or representative only when the person separately consents. Consent is optional and can be declined. Official benefit decisions are made only by the Social Security Administration.
