You are not working due to a severe physical or mental condition.
You have been or expect to be unable to work for at least 12 straight months.
You have medical records to document your condition and its severity.
You are not able to perform any of the jobs you have done in the past 15 years.
You will not be able to perform any other full-time work because of your condition(s).
