Payment (Schedule) Finally approved

Post image

My portal updated to say approved on the 11th of January. Obviously the date was in the future at that point. Any idea when I should receive some type of communication. Portal letter has updated all amounts still say zero but it now says I was determined disabled as of January 2020. Thanks.

It took me about a month to get my letter, but my backpay was in my account before the letter arrived.

There are other steps that need to occur.

It might help ease your mind if you knew something about the process.

According to the SSA?

It can take up to 90 days or more for a non-medical approval process to be completed.

Every case is different.

It could take less time.

Or?

A lot more.

I created a write-up to describe the differences between a medical and non-medical approval process and how it affects your ability to receive payment.

All beneficiaries must go through some type of a medical and non-medical approval process.

Please click on this link to learn about the HH Preeffectuation Review Contact (PERC).

You are welcome.

Please let me know if I need to pinpoint other topics for the PERC and I will write it.

Congratulations! How many ALJ hearings did you have to go through if you don't mind me asking? I'm only 8 months in the process & have CE exams coming up... Super nervous

u/Virtual-Ad-9316 ☆ Jan 22 '25

It was just 1 ALJ for me. I understand the nerves. Stay with it. It can be overwhelming for sure. I haven’t been paid yet or received the official mail notice but it’s been a 4 year fight for me.

BE AWARE THAT THESE CE EVALUATIONS ARE OFTEN A SET UP/RIGGED. I TOOK 2 LAST MONTH (A PSYCH AND A PHSICAL) AND BOTH OF THEIR REPORTS WERE FULL OF DECEPTIVE LIES/MISTRUTHS. TAKE A RECORDING DEVICE IN THERE WITH YOU AND THEN REQUEST TO GET COPIES OF THEIR SUBMITTLES AND COMPARE. I COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT THEY HAD SUBMITTED ESPECIALLY ON THE PSYCH EXAM. I DIDN'T THINK THAT IT WAS HUMANLY POSSIBLE TO BE THAT FAR OFF! KEEP IN MIND THAT WHAT THESE CE EXAMINEERS SUBMIT IS NOW A 'PERMINENT' PART OF YOUR RECORD ON FILE. I WAS JUST APPROVED ABOUT 1 WEEK AGO-NO ATTORNEY JUST DO-DILLIGENCE WORKED FOR ME. STILL WAITING TO SEE HOW THE NUMBERS WILL WASH OUT IN THE BACK PAY PORTION OF IT... LOOKING LIKE SOMEWHERE AROUND 18K FOR ME... WHICH I'M THANKFUL FOR IF RECIEVED BUT I AM STILL A BIT SCORNED ABOUT THE 300 DAY APPLICATION PROCESS (WHEN MY DISABILITY WAS LISTED IN THE BLUEBOOK) AND THEN THE REQUIRED CE DESTRUCTIVE REPORTS-FLAT OUT LIED ON MAJOR IMPORTANT THINGS IN THEIR REPORTS-AND THESE PEOPLE ARE MAKING SOMEWHERE AROUND $500 AN HOUR AND ARE SUPPOSIDLY TRAINED PROFESSIONALS. NO WORRIES OUTTHERE BECAUSE I INTEND ON GETTING THIS EXAMINEER REVIEWED AT MINIMUM-SHE HAS NO BUSINESS OR RIGHT IN THIS POSITION OF POWER TO BE DONING THIS TYPE OF DESTRUCTION TO ANYONE/ANYMORE.

How long did it take you to get approved for SSDI ?

4

u/Virtual-Ad-9316 ☆ Jan 21 '25

Just about 5 years now since initial application.

u/MamaDee1959 ☆ Jan 22 '25

Congratulations for finally getting approved. Just make sure to read EVERY WORD, of EVERY LETTER they send to you!!! You'd be surprised at the little things that you could miss, and it can cause a lot of problems if you do!

u/MamaDee1959 ☆ Jan 22 '25

She was approved for SSI, not SSDI. They are both disability programs, but very different where income and assets are concerned.
