SI gauge, 15 denier BEN FRANKLIN Nationwide, over 275,000 disabled workers 50 to 65 years of age are now receiving a total of over 24 million dollars a njonth irj disability insurance payments under the social security program. This is an increase of about 12 million dollars over the same month* last year. Part of this increase in the number of persons receiving this disability payment is due to a 1958 change in the law easing the requirement as to how long a person must have worked under social security in order to qualify. However, many disabled workers made eligible under this change have still not applied for their disability payments. If they delay, their ap plications until after September 1959, they may lose one or more months back payments. Qualified disabled workers who file applicatiorts now may receive payments back as far as the month of September 1958. But after September, payments will be retroactive for no 'more than 12 months; for example, a qualified dis&bled worker who applies for benefits in October 1959 may be paid benefits beginning no earlier than October 1958. -ssi Under the 1958 change in the law, there is now onlyVpne work requirement that musfptfe met in order for a disabled worker to qualify for disability payments at age 50. This requirement is that he must have worked on jobs covered by/social security in at least Shears out of the last 10 years before his disability began.
