Default Re: Are any of you on disabilty like me?

I was talking about the wait time it takes to find out if you've been accepted for monthly disability payments from Social Security.

it normally is between 5 to 6 months from the time that you sign up.

And whoever goes to sign up, during the processing of the paperwork, whatever they send you in the mail that needs info for your case, then JUST DO IT. And get it back to them asap.

The least little thing that doesn't look right, it msy give them the excuse to deny you!! Follow everything to the letter and don't hesitate!

Luckily, I was not denied at all. I was accepted the first time around. And you will get a retro check based on the time that you applied. The best way to sign up IS to go directly to your nearest office to have a representative do it for you.

You just need to bring valuable info of your income status, rent and utiliy bills, if any, and you SS card. Remember, do all that they ask you to, or they'll surley deny you, and the wait time will be even longer - possibly another 6 months or more!!

Good luck to you all! I hope that you're successful.
