QUICK TIP:
Pay special attention to Question #6 on the SSA-3373.
The sixth question on the Function Report asks you to “Describe what you do from the time you wake up until going to bed.” Be sure to answer this question honestly. Many people feel guilty that they do not do more throughout the day so they downplay their condition and exaggerate their activities.
Do not do this. If you mainly stay in bed and watch television or read because you are physically unable to do otherwise, then say that. The point of the Function Report is to determine how your condition affects your day-to-day life. You can use the “Remarks” section to provide additional information if you run out of space.
