You're referring to the AOB (Application for Benefits) form!

The AOB is a document used to apply for benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA) or the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB). It's typically used when an individual is unable to work due to a disability or illness, and is seeking financial assistance.

Here's a breakdown of the AOB form:

What is the AOB form used for?

The AOB form is used to apply for:

  1. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits
  2. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits
  3. Railroad Retirement Disability benefits

What information is required on the AOB form?

The AOB form typically asks for the following information:

  1. Personal details (name, date of birth, Social Security number)
  2. Work history (previous jobs, dates of employment, earnings)
  3. Medical history (list of illnesses, injuries, or conditions)
  4. Functional limitations (ability to perform daily activities)
  5. Education and training (highest level of education completed)
  6. Employment history (previous jobs, dates of employment, earnings)
  7. Other income sources (pensions, investments, etc.)

How do I submit the AOB form?

You can submit the AOB form online, by phone, or in person at your local SSA office. If you're unable to submit the form online, you can request a paper copy from the SSA or RRB.

What happens after submitting the AOB form?

After submitting the AOB form, the SSA or RRB will review your application and may request additional information or documentation. They will also schedule a medical examination (if necessary) to assess your condition.

If your application is approved, you'll receive a notice with information on your benefits and how to access them. If your application is denied, you can appeal the decision.

Remember to carefully review the AOB form and provide accurate information to ensure a smooth application process.
