Hi Cathy,

Approval is not automatic because there are two parts to qualifying for SSDI. The first is the medical part, the second is the technical part which takes into consideration your personal work history.

Status: a medical decision have been made. Why do I still have to attend a hearing if the decision has been made. Please help! Can someone give me an answer. This have been going on for 3 years.

Hi Lakeo,

That does not mean they have made a decision your claim overall, it just means they have made a decision on if you medically qualify. There are other qualifications that need to be met as well and it's likely the SSA is still working to establish if you meet those qualifications.

Hi Epica,

We're not affiliated with the SSA so that is not something we can help with. If your claim is in writing & they are writing your letter, you'll know soon if you were denied or approved. If you worked with a lawyer, you can contact them as they usually find out before you receive the letter.

Hi,

This means that they are reviewing the medical part of your application to ensure that you meet the criteria that they have set.

Hi Kao,

The letter will state if you were approved or denied. If you were denied keep the letter and follow the instructions on how to appeal the decision. Best of luck!

Hey There,

Your awards letter should have stated if you were to receive back pay and how much. Typically, back pay comes 3 installments, with the first coming 4 about months after you begin receive disability benefits. The other installments then come 6 months apart typically. If you have questions on your back pay specifically, you can call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213!

Hi Shelly,

It looks like a medical decision has been made, but it will still take some time to make sure that everything is together. If you have hired an attorney, it is likely that they will receive their portion of any back payment before you do. This could be an indicator if what the decision is.
