It ain't right.
I know a young man who was completely paralyzed in a car accident. His parents applied for him since he couldn't do it himself.
The SSA denied him. Their response said they found that he could have some sort of gainful employment. They stated that some of the jobs listed for his ability were available--carnival barker and radio announcer.
If it was my kid I would have been in jail right after receiving that letter. Unfortunately, the person who signed the letter would no longer have been with us.
They won on appeal. Even the ALJ who reviewed the case stated that the SSA shouldn't be surprised at what happens when they send out letters like that one.
