Guest guest Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Hi, I usually don’t post much but do keep up with reading e-mails. I just wanted to send hope to those that have applied for SSDI and are waiting. I was turned down when I first applied and got a lawyer for the appeal. I was denied again as soon as I could be denied. We again appealed and it went before an Administrative Law Judge on January 28th and I was approved fully favorable on February 28th I just found out today. The judge approved to the first day that I listed when my illness began which is back to Feb 2009. How Social Security explained it to me is I have to wait 5 mo. from Feb 2009 to July 2009 so it would be August 2009 but really no pay till Sept 2009. I get Medicare for hospital after 2 years so that would be Feb of 2011 and there is no premium for hospitalization it is figured into your SSDI but I will have to pay and have deducted from my check 99.90 per month this for anything medical other than hospitalization. They said back pay will take 30-90 days but my monthly checks will start as of March 28th. I hope this helps anyone that is waiting as you can see I have been waiting since 2009 and have been turned down twice before I went before the law judge. Keep the faith and hang in there. I would definitely recommend getting a lawyer they will take around 5 thousand dollars from your back pay if you win but it is well worth it. Mine had all of my medical records in a large binder and had everything marked with tabs and was able to answer the judge very quickly.
