The Social Security Administration levies taxes from employers and employees, even those who are self-employed, to fund the retirement, disability, and survivor benefits received by million of American each year. The taxes being levied are based on the income of the employee.

The current rate for Social Security taxes is 12.4%, half of which is paid by the employer. If you are self-employed, you are to pay all 12.4%, but there are certain deductions applicable so it wouldn’t be too heavy for the self-employed individuals. To properly document an individual’s income that are subject to taxes, the use of certain Social Security Forms is necessary.

In SSI, disabled means that the individual has a physical or mental incapacity that hinders the individual from doing meaningful and gainful activities and tasks. This also means that the individual’s condition is medically examined, can result to death, and is expected or can last continuously for more than 12 months. Disability can also include emotional or learning impairments.

To qualify for disability benefits, certain Social Security Disability Forms have to be duly filled out by the claimant and submitted to the Social Security Administration, along with the necessary medical test results and other medical forms used to substantiate the claim. Aside from determining an individual’s eligibility for disability benefits, these forms will also be used to calculate the amount an individual is to receive, given that his claim is approved.
