how to fill out disability forms to get approved 2014-2021

Definitely ask for a psychologist referral?  You want someone on your side who can understand your issues and be willing and eager to advocate for you with the beancounters because disability can be rather hard to get some places, like just south of the border in America.Having a psychologist means you have a more qualified specialist filling out your papers (which is a positive for you and for the government), and it means you can be seeing someone who can get to know your issues in greater depth and expertise for further government and non-profit organization provided aid.If seeing a psychologist on a regular basis is still too difficult for you, start with your initial appointment and then perhaps build up a rapport with a good therapist through distanced appointments (like via telephone, if that is easier) until you can be going into a physical office.  It would probably look good on the form if your psychologist can truthfully state that you are currently seeking regular treatment for your disorders because of how serious and debilitating they are.I don't know how disability in Canada works, but I have gone through the process in the US, and specifically for anxiety and depression, like you.  Don't settle for a reluctant or wishywashy doctor or psychologist, especially when it comes to obtaining the resources for basic survival.  I also advise doing some internet searches on how to persuasively file for disability in Canada.  Be prepared to fight for your case through an appeal, if it should come to that, and understand the requirements and processes involved in applying for disability by reading government literature and reviewing success stories on discussion websites.

Larry Dahl is incorrect on many points. Canada does not have a higher debt than the US. We have a much lower debt, both in absolute terms and in per capita and percentage of GDP terms. That holds true whether you look at federal debt only or total government debt.As to having fewer freedoms and more government intrusiveness, that is also false. Since 9/11 in particular the US has passed many laws and regulations reducing freedom of all sorts. In Canada, most people face minimal interaction with government. When you require health services, you see your doctor or go to a clinic or hospital. You don’t have contact with government. You can get income tax software and easily fill out your forms yourself, and file it online. If you are honest, you are unlikely to face an audit.I am disabled and on welfare, so I have a few more hoops to go through, but even so I face less government red tape than most people in the US. Every 3 months I have to phone a government agency, wait about an hour on hold, then answer a few questions about my income and my residence. Then I get approved for rental supplement for another 3 months. Once a year I have an annual review in person with a social worker. That’s it unless there is a special situation. I have no other government intervention in my life and never have.Likewise, my father was a disabled veteran and a farmer and just had to call Veterans Affairs a few times to get special approval for a prescription medication or for new dentures, etc.My sister and brother both travel out of country regularly, including to the US, Mexico, and Taiwan. Again, they have had minimal interaction with Canadian or provincial governments or their agencies throughout their lives.It is true that Canada has higher taxes than the US, but government also provides more services, including public health care, post-secondary education subsidies, better welfare, and better old age pensions and healthcare Overall cost of living for someone with median income and lifestyle is lower. Lower income persons are much better off.So, fairness. How do you define fairness? in Canada, whether you have low income or high income, you get decent health care coverage and you get seen in reasonable time - quickly for emergencies, possibly months or several years for more routine services. You get your public education from K-12 at minimal cost (mainly some school supplies, and for those with low income there are programs to prschool supplies if you can’t afford them). University tuition and boarding costs are low compared to most US universities, and there are generous scholarships and bursaries, plus student loans backed by government. A friend of mine got student loans and got Microsoft A-1 certified computer technician certification. He was diagnosed with ADD and couldn’t get a job. With his disability, every few months his student loan was reduced, and it is now almost erased. If he had been able to find work, he would have had reasonable payments.Mistakes happen and you can find hardnosed government bureaucrats in every country. I think both Canada and the US are reasonably fair, though under Trump the US has become much less fair for anyone who isn’t a billionaire. Canada is more fair to low and middle-income persons, especially disabled people on welfare.It is 100% untrue that Canadian government is intrusive in ordinary people’s lives. Our laws are generally reasonable and it’s not hard to avoid legal trouble. Even if you get caught speeding or parking illegally, you pay your fine and there’s no problem. You can even mail in your payment or pay online instead of going to city hall. I know of NOBODY who has had government interfering in their regular lives, and I am 53.Socialism does NOT cost a lot in money or freedom. That is absolutely FALSE. I think anyone who has lived a while in a socialist country can verify that. No system is perfect, but fair? Certainly. Much more fair for an average working person than the US.

NOOOOOOO. You are talking to a military romance scammer. I received an email from the US Army that directly answers your question that is pasted below please keep reading.I believe you are the victim of a military Romance Scam whereas the person you are talking to is a foreign national posing as an American Soldier claiming to be stationed overseas on a peacekeeping mission. That's the key to the scam they always claim to be on a peacekeeping mission.Part of their scam is saying that they have no access to their money that their mission is highly dangerous.If your boyfriend girlfriend/future husband/wife is asking you to do the following or has exhibited this behavior, it is a most likely a scam:Moves to private messaging site immediately after meeting you on Facebook or SnapChat or Instagram or some dating or social media site. Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does prall the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave. Trust me, I lived it, you are probably being scammed. I am just trying to show you examples that you are most likely being connned.Below is an email response I received after I sent an inquiry to the US government when I discovered I was scammed. I received this wonderful response back with lots of useful links on how to find and report your scammer. And how to learn more about Romance Scams.Right now you can also copy the picture he gave you and do a google image search and you will hopefully see the pictures of the real person he is impersonating. this doesn't always work and take some digging. if you find the real person you can direct message them and alert them that their image is being used for scamming.Good Luck to you and I'm sorry this may be happening to you. please continue reading the government response I received below it's very informative.   You have contacted an email that is monitored by the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command.

If the treatment is simple counselling in my office, all I have to do is type my note, then I bill automatically through my electronic health record. So all codes for diagnosis and type of exam are preprogrammed into the system. Treatment has occurred. No trees were injured.If the treatment requires a prescription, then I can write the prescription in my Electronic health Record (EHR) and efax to pharmacy. Or I print it out, sign it. The patient takes it to a pharmacy where his or her insurance is checked, information is added to her computerized record and the medication is dispensed. If I made an error or pharmacist has a question, then they contact me and we fix it. Sometimes a medication is covered only under specific circumstances, so I may have to fill out an online form that gets efaxed to government requesting approval. (Examples might be a cholinesterase inhibitor for dementia, or a specific expensive treatment for Attention Deficit Disorder…). Minimal paperwork for treatment.It’s more complicated if I refer to a specialist. Depending on the specialty, there are a variety of ways to refer. Some go to a centralized booking Center, some are given to the patient who then has to call and make appointment, sometimes it goes to a team that has a specific referral form (pain clinic, head trauma….). In some cases I phone a specialist to find out how to get a patient in for rapid diagnosis in cancer care. Sometimes they’ll see the patient the next day. Only paperwork was a printed out referral with a copy of the X-ray.I have very little paperwork in general for treatment to occur (which is what you asked in your question).When I do have paperwork, it’s usually for insurance companies for short or long term disability, life insurance, workman’s compensation, road insurance for someone injured in a vehicle accident, fitness to drive forms….,The other administrative stuff I have to do involves looking up the patient results for all the tests I do. I try to minimize the testing I do, for example I do not send every cough for a chest x Ray or every case of dizziness for a brain scan. But even so, most of my patients come in with an illness that does require testing and I have to look through the results, file them or act upon them. That takes at least an hour a day.That has nothing to do with whether healthcare is privatized or universal.Hope this answered your question.

Departments of education and school districts always have to make decisions about what to include in their curriculum.  There are a lot of life skills that people need that aren't taught in school.  The question is should those skills be taught in schools?I teach high school, so I'll talk about that.  The typical high school curriculum is supposed to give students a broad-based education that prepares them to be citizens in a democracy and to be able to think critically.  For a democracy to work, we need educated, discerning citizens with the ability to make good decisions based on evidence and objective thought.  In theory, people who are well informed about history, culture, science, mathematics, etc., and are capable of critical, unbiased thinking, will have the tools to participate in a democracy and make good decisions for themselves and for society at large.  In addition to that, they should be learning how to be learners, how to do effective, basic research, and collaborate with other people.  If that happens, figuring out how to do procedural tasks in real life should not prmuch of a challenge.  We can't possibly teach every necessary life skill people need, but we can help students become better at knowing how to acquire the skills they need.  Should we teach them how to change a tire when they can easily consult a book or search the internet to find step by step instructions for that?  Should we teach them how to balance a check book or teach them how to think mathematically and make sense of problems so that the simple task of balancing a check book (which requires simple arithmetic and the ability to enter numbers and words in columns and rows in obvious ways) is easy for them to figure out.  If we teach them to be good at critical thinking and have some problem solving skills they will be able to apply those overarching skills to all sorts of every day tasks that shouldn't be difficult for someone with decent cognitive ability  to figure out.  It's analogous to asking why a culinary school didn't teach its students the steps and ingredients to a specific recipe.  The school taught them about more general food preparation and food science skills so that they can figure out how to make a lot of specific recipes without much trouble.  They're also able to create their own recipes.So, do we want citizens with very specific skill sets that they need to get through day to day life or do we want citizens with critical thinking, problem solving, and other overarching cognitive skills that will allow them to easily acquire ANY simple, procedural skill they may come to need at any point in their lives?

You can do everything correctly and still be denied. First, you apply online or in person (make an appointment if possible) at a Social Security office. Think of every possible reason why you are not able to work. Can you stand? Walk? Deal with people? Can you hear? See? Are you in physical pain? Do you have trouble holding things? Is it difficult to speak on the phone?When I have helped people apply for disability, often they focus on their pain and sadness and not on the reasons they are unable to work. Try to think of everything that could keep you from working. Medication side effects, for example, can be debilitating.If you are denied, appeal it every time until you see an administrative law judge. Get a lawyer if necessary.
