Hi Larry
I am asking for my brother who has worked for 44 years and became disabled in 2003. How can he maximize his benefits from social security? Thank you

Hi,

I'd need much more information about your brother to be able to give you a meaningful reply. However, if your brother is disabled and he's under his full retirement age (FRA), he may want to apply for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits if he hasn't already done so. For more information on SSDI benefits and how to apply for them, refer to Social Security's website: https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/disability/.

Best, Jerry
