That all sounds really helpful for your case Sonny.

I'm still concerned for your approval though, because they sent you to their own doc and psych. It is my impression from reading here (not from personal experience and NOT something I know to be a fact) that SSA usually sends you for those when it's a borderline kind of case. It sounds like your documentation would be more of a home run.

I think your age counts against you. I was 40 too when I applied. From reports around here, it seems like it's an easier process for those who are over 50. Having a college degree can count against you too as they figure you have more employment options.

I hope you hear good news soon. If not, remember it takes most of us a few tries to get there.
