Just wondering how long it took some of you to start your monthly benefits and how long for the backpay? Thanks

It took 10 weeks from the day I first applied for SSDI to be approved. The first check was deposited on the next week(11the week), backpay and all.
I now rec. SSDI pmt. like clockwork each month.

I am approved SSDI for 3 years before a review is to take place in ref. to RSD/CRPS,Major Depression,Panic/Anxiety Disorder,Fibromyalgia, and Insomnia Disorder,etc.

I realize that my situation is not the norm and feel blessed to have my approval to be accepted immediately. I did have over 2 yrs of medical records, and support from doctors and my psychologist. I had been off work almost 10 1/2 months, and attempted to try employment with a new employer with sedentary work; after almost 1 1/2 months, I had to resign the new job, because I could not continue to work without daily pain meds.

I have the exact problems you have psychologically. That's what put me over the top. I have left knee problems 5 failed surgeries. Waiting on the 6th. I too will have a 3 year review. I hope I get the pay shortly. I owe everybody. Thanks for the response!
