Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I am just in process of waiting for SSD, got denied for SSI have a auto worth more than 3,000. SSD will give me more a mo. anyway and doesn't matter what you own. I hate to discourage you but once you have been denied, and reapply with lawyer can still take 3yrs hopefully 2yrs but from what I hear no less than that. I am beside myself for income, as I know I can not take on a scheduled shift anywhere, I would have to work from home, or on my own terms, never know when I can't get up in the a.m. Good Luck and your atty should give u a answer to time frame, but believe at least 2yrs.

I got my letter last week and decided to consult with a attorney to get some direction and I am going to order all of medical records. But, this last week has been the pits. I feel like someone has beat me with a 2x4. There is no way I could be a good worker. Is anyone else getting ssi? Let me know how long it took and if you ever did get it.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I am not getting SSI yet, but am on Workmans comp. I am scared as you are if SSI will accept me. What will I do if they do not. I feel the same way about working. I know I couldn't do a good job. The responsibilities of work and 5 kids is overwhelming for me. I just now am coming to terms with it and voicing reality. It was hard though, as I was embarassed that i am only 36 and feel disabled in my own body. I wish you the best of luch, and I hope to hear from you Re: visiti;ng an attorney today disability I am just in process of waiting for SSD, got denied for SSI have a auto worth more than 3,000.
