My husband and I recently received our (annual?) statements from Social Security. We are 63 and 61. His statement confirmed what I suspected. He has not worked enough hours in the last 10 years to qualify for disability. I didn't realize this information was on the report, since I never looked for it before. It's good to know, although unfortunate he does not qualify. No need to have a doctor declare him disabled. No need to discuss this option with a lawyer, etc. Simple answer, in black and white.
