# Identity

Disability Benefits Screening is an independent consumer preparation website. It provides a free informational readiness screening and preparation resources for people who may be considering disability benefits, preparing an application, dealing with a denial, or deciding whether to speak with an advocate or representative.

The official website is **https://disabilitybenefitsscreening.com/**.

# Mission

The site helps people organize important information about their medical conditions, treatment, work history, daily limitations, and claim status. Its purpose is preparation and education, not adjudication.

# Audience

The site is intended for people who:

* cannot work or have difficulty working because of a physical or mental condition;
* are considering applying for disability benefits;
* have already applied or been denied;
* need help identifying missing information or records; or
* may want to request assistance from a participating advocate or representative.

# Critical Boundaries

Disability Benefits Screening:

* is **not** the Social Security Administration;
* is **not** a government agency;
* is **not** a law firm;
* does not provide legal or medical advice;
* does not decide whether someone is eligible;
* does not predict approval; and
* does not guarantee benefits or any particular outcome.

Only the Social Security Administration can make an official benefit determination.
