Over Fifty and Disabled? Help With Social Security Benefits
With regard to Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income applications, there is an ironic benefit to being over 50 that most people do not consider. If you are over 50 years of age and you are disabled — physically impaired, mentally impaired, have a chronic condition or a spinal impairment — then the Social Security Examiner is more likely to allow your claim.

Disability Claims When You Are Over 50
Disabled people over the age of 50 have a higher success rate in obtaining Social Security Disability Claims. In fact, the Society of Actuaries has done a study that shows that while more than 44.1 percent of people aged 24 recover from their disability, only 11.8 percent of people aged 55 recover.
Issues of Transferable Skills Work to Your Benefit
For individuals over the age of 50, it is sometimes more difficult to adapt to a new job situation and applicants may simply not have the necessary skills. This is especially true when a physical laborer becomes limited to sedentary work, but does not have the requisite skill-set for an office job. If you are over the age of 55 and cannot perform anything other than light work and have no transferable skills, you are more likely to obtain a favorable benefits resolution.
