When it comes to your work history, that is important to winning your case because the first thing Social Security will ask is, in spite of your medical problems, can you go back and do your past work? They can’t answer that until they know what you actually did for your past work. And the regulations require that the agency go back 15 years to look at your past work. So that’s why you always hear this 15 year thing. It’s just one of the rules. And they’re going to ask about the physical demands of your work, the mental, emotional, and skill demands and things like that. So you need to be ready to do a 15 year work history and it’s basically your main jobs. And here’s a tip. I get a lot of people who say, for example, they’ve done warehouse work over 10 years for different employers. You can lump them all together and say, for this 10 year window of time, I did warehouse work for various employers, always the same, and you go on to describe that type of work.00:56 A little bit of a shortcut, but perfectly allowable. But again, the short answer is, they go back 15 years because the law says so. When you need help putting your work history together, call us.
