in the case of an SSDI application, it is always determined if the applicant can return to past work. If that is deemed not possible then it is determined if the applicant can be given any form of alternative work. If that also is not possible then the applicant's case will be approved for a medical vocational allowance. Thus in most of the cases it is through this route that people claim the social security disability benefits.

Is scoliosis a physical disability?

None of the above. Autism is a neurological difference that you either are or are not - how it affects you can be mild, moderate or severe but this can change throughout your life. Autism is known as Autism Spectrum Disorder but this assumes that Neurotypical is the norm and Autism is a fault in a brain that was supposed to be Neurotypical, many people find this offensive and instead insist it is a variation in brains (like race is a variation in skin colour and physical characteristics) not a disorder. Autism itself also isn't a disability, a person with autism may be disabled by their autism or by other people's prejudice or lack of support of their differences, but in itself Autism is not a disability - not all autistic people are disabled by autism.
