SOCIAL SECURITY YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY Question I was not able to get disability benefits from social security two years ago because I had not worked long enough to qualify. Have those work requirements changed? Answer Yes. The 1967 amenments reduced the number of work credits younger workers need to get disability benefits. If you became disabled before age 31, you should reapply for benefits at your nearest social security office. Buy U.S. Savings Bonds.
