And, if it is not in writing, SSA won't know be able to substantiate what you say.
Also, another word of advice: I listed out all my medical records which I asked SSA to consider. In fact, some of these providers did not send them and I got a list stating which records were received by ssa and which records were not received and you'd be surprised. I'm already receiving ssi and ssdi, however I did not get my onset date to go back to my actual onset date as a result and now I am stuck not knowing what to do in this situation. There is clear evidence to show it began at age 14, yet ssa only went back to age 22. I think the lack of records received may have been the deciding factor. Does anyone know how to fix this and cover the time period of ages 14-21??
Thanks!
