If my memory is correct to qualify for SSDI you need 10 years of working and having SS taken out.....The only reason it wouldnt of been updates was the company you were working for was not keeping SS updated....They might find there selves in some hot water for not reporting timely?

If you have kept your pay slips make sure that lines up with SS hours worked and FICA taken out.....Its easy enough to skim from the top and not report all earnings!

Congrats of being approved.....It sure is a pain, and most fail the first 2 times around...
