I got my employment based Green Card last year, so I am a new US permanent resident.
Unfortuntely, I am presently on LTD (long- term- disability) due to a health condition.
My long term insurance carrier wants me to apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) . I think I am a "qualified alien" and have sufficient work credits for SSDI ( having worked for more than 5 of the last 10 years )
Can applying for Social Security Disability Insurance, while I am a permanent resident (having an employment based Green Card) negatively affect my prospects for US Citizenship later on ?
I hope to apply for US citizenship after 4+ years.
