A person who is fully insured is entitled to a wider range of Social Security benefits than someone who is âcurrently insured.â To be âfully insured,â a person must have earned 40 credits at retirement age, which would generally mean that the person has worked enough to earn the maximum of four credits a year for the past ten years.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) does not assume that you will be permanently disabled when you are granted Social Security Disability (SSD) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits. Many of the conditions that prevent Social Security recipients from working can be expected to improve with time.ccordingly, the SSA periodically reviews the case of Social Security disability recipients to determine whether they are still unable to work and therefore still considered disabled. This process is called a  continuing disability review , or CDR.
