Resource Center: Social Security Disability

It is often difficult to locate an individual simply by their name or address.  Because many other people may have the very same name, and addresses can become outdated quite rapidly, these are not reliable methods for tracking someone down.  It is far more accurate to locate a person using Social Security, because legal residents and citizens of the United States all have unique Social Security numbers that cannot be reassigned or duplicated by any other person.

Social Security being a federal program, Social Security Disability law is federal law and all Social Security Disability appeals will be heard in a federal court.
