🔍 What Is RFC (Residual Functional Capacity) in SSDI?

Residual Functional Capacity (RFC) plays a crucial role in the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claims process. RFC helps the Social Security Administration (SSA) determine how much work you can still do, considering the limitations caused by your medical conditions. It’s the SSA's way of measuring your abilities—both physically and mentally—even when dealing with health challenges.

🔹 How Does RFC Work?
The SSA evaluates several areas to understand your functional capacity:

Exertional Abilities: Can you sit, stand, walk, lift, or carry items?
Postural Abilities: How well can you bend, stoop, crouch, or move in ways that affect your posture?
Manipulative Abilities: Can you use your arms and hands to perform tasks like reaching, pulling, or handling objects?
Environmental Abilities: How do you react to conditions like heat, cold, noise, or fumes?
Non-Exertional Abilities: How do your mental health and emotional functioning (concentration, focus, and task persistence) impact your ability to work?
🔹 Why RFC Is Important for Your SSDI Claim
The SSA uses your RFC to determine if you can perform your past work or other types of work in the national economy. If your RFC shows that your condition prevents you from working consistently in any capacity, you may qualify for SSDI benefits.

📝 How Is RFC Determined?
The RFC is based on:

Your medical records
Statements from your doctors
Your testimony about how your condition affects your daily life.
⚖️ Key Takeaway:
If your RFC reveals that your physical or mental limitations stop you from working full-time, the SSA will consider you eligible for SSDI benefits.
