Default 10 points on SS Disability meaning

Quote:
Sounds like you last paid Social Security taxes in 2001 and became disabled in 1/09. Doubtful you have enough Social Security credits in the right time for disability benefits. Not sure what you by 10 points on the disability part.
SS sends me a statement in mail once or twice a yr. It explains what my retirement benefits would be at this point and time if i didn't work anymore and amounts for retiring at 62, 66 or if i wait til 70. I was a commercial carpenter for 25 yrs so i paid alot into SS. It was 1998 or 99 when i last worked.I am not old enough to draw reg SS benefits yet, only 57. Under disability part it says to draw now you have to have a total of 20 pts. to qualify. I have only 10 pts. I dont know how pts. are figured up at all. I guess i will have to go to SS office or call to find out. Thank You anyway
