At least a year and a half of that credit must be for work during the three years just before your disability be gan. "In addition, you must have a disability which, in the words of the law, makes you unable to engage in any substantial gain ful activity. It must be the kind of physical or mental condition which will show up in a medical examination or tests, and it must have lasted for at least six months and be expected to con tinue for a long and indefinite time," he said.
