Reply #4: What is the difference between RSDI and SSDI? [View All]

[Bunny]

I've never heard of RSDI. He will definitely be unable to do his current job for 12 months (in fact for the rest of his life). And his job history, other work skills, and the prevailing job climate in the community are all bad. I had heard that most people get turned down at first, and then have to appeal. I do think he'd eventually be declared eligible for disability, I guess it's a question of how long it would take and what he'd live on till the determination was made.

Thanks for the input!
