Hi Laurabeth
Yes, definitely call the number or visit the website provided by your responders to this post. That would be most convenient. If you decide to visit the office for more info, get there early as it fills up quickly and you will be there all day. It is an intensive process to get benefits. Lawyers started contacting me as soon as they were alerted that I was applying for benefits. I did not utilize them because I figured that there is a good chance that I would qualify. Besides I did not want to part with a percentage that I was not prepared to get rid of.
