Applying for Disability Benefits for Children under Age 18

Explains the steps involved in applying for disability benefits for children. http://www.ssa.gov/applyfordisability/child.htm An application for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and a Child Disability Report are required. The Child Disability Starter Kit answers questions about applying for SSI for children and includes a worksheet that can help you gather the information you need to apply.
