I am on disabilty. I recommend applying. It takes two years atleast to go thru the process. BMT's can often deplete coverage, I have no idea how long the present coverage will last. I applied in 4/04 and was approved in 5/06. If he ends up not needing it, no matter, but if he needs it in two years it can take time. You have to pay into the system consistently for five years to qualify. I ws $137. short in paying into the system. contact Social Security office in your area and set up a consult appointment. They are helpful. It requires post graduate hoop jumping.
