SSI/SSDI Benefits Lunch n Learn Mini Series: Now or Later: The Right Time to Apply and Initial Steps

ECNV Benefits Navigation Mini-Series

Join us on the second Fridays of the month for anyone currently pursuing or thinking about pursuing one of the Entitlement Benefits Programs - e.g. SSI / SSDI. ECNV is here to help you find what you need to know and come listen (and ask your questions) in a practical but friendly atmosphere that will help you better understand Social Security benefits and how to qualify for them.

Whether you’re thinking about applying, already receiving benefits, or trying to balance work limits and income, these sessions will walk you through what you need to know — step by step.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Understand whether benefits make sense for you right now

  • Navigate the application process and documentation

  • Make informed choices about working while receiving benefits

Bring your lunch and your questions — and leave with clarity.
