There are no key indicators that I know of that would give you a heads up if you are going to be denied or approved. If you filed recenetly there are a couple of things you could do to increase your chances. It's not too late to submit evidence of your claim. Have your doctor fill out an RFC form (REsidual Functional Capacity) ASAP. Also collect any medical evidence such as imaging studies and letters from your doctors describing your limitations and why you can't work. You can also complete an Adult Function Report written with a lot of detail and examples. Both of these forms**are in PDF format so you can print them out.
