I understand the frustration of waiting and 'just give it a little longer" But please don't let this stress you out over the phone call that might never come issue......just waiting for the letter/check is stressful enough !

I hope that you hear really soon and that it is good news !
happens all the time that you'll get retroactive pay before the award letter...i have no clue why but it's nice to give good news sometimes.

they aren't allowed to tell you why because it's medical info that we can't release...not even to the claimant. It's a very strict rule.
