Help applying for Social Security retirement benefits or disability (SSDI).

Social Security pays monthly retirement benefits based on your lifetime work, and SSDI pays workers who can no longer work because of a serious, long-lasting disability. Both are based on Social Security taxes you paid.

You can start retirement as early as 62 (a reduced amount) or wait for a higher benefit. We help you apply and gather what you need.

## Who this is for

- Workers age 62 or older ready to claim retirement benefits
- People who worked long enough (about 10 years) and paid Social Security taxes
- Workers who can no longer do substantial work because of a disability (SSDI)
- Anyone who wants the process explained in Bangla

## How we can help

- Help you apply online or set up an appointment with Social Security
- Help you gather work history, identity, and (for disability) medical records
- Explain how age affects your monthly retirement amount
- Translate the SSA letters and requests you receive

## What to bring

- Social Security number and proof of age (birth certificate)
- Immigration/identity documents
- Work history and most recent W-2 or tax return
- For disability: doctors, medicines, and medical records

## Questions

**When can I start retirement benefits?**

As early as age 62 for a reduced amount, or later (up to 70) for a higher monthly benefit. We help you understand the trade-off.

**Do you decide if I get disability?**

No. Social Security decides using a strict medical rule. We help you file a complete, well-organized application.
