But you should not rely on me any more than you rely on that post.

The 95% information was given to me by one of the TOP SSDI attorneys and the Social Security office in my area. It may vary from state to state.

I am only stating what I have been told... if you have better percentages in your area then CONGRATULATIONS... if you have the same or worse... I'm truly sorry.
