WHAT WE MEAN BY "DISABILITY"
“Disability” under Social Security is based on your inability to work. For purposes of this claim, we want you to understand that “disability” means you are unable to work as defined by the Social Security Act. You will be considered disabled if you are unable to do any kind of work for which you are suited and if your disability is expected to last (or has lasted) for at least a year or is expected to result in death. So when we ask “when did you become unable to work,” we are asking when you became disabled as defined by the Social Security Act.

We will use the information to determine eligibility for benefits. We may also share your information for the following purposes, called routine uses:
•To contractors and other Federal agencies, as necessary, for the purpose of assisting the Social Security Administration (SSA) in the efficient administration of its programs; and

In addition, we may share this information in accordance with the Privacy Act and other Federal laws. For example, where authorized, we may use and disclose this information in computer matching programs, in which our records are compared with other records to establish or verify a person's eligibility for Federal benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect or delinquent debts under these programs.
