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.
I am actually getting used to waiting as I have had to do many times for WC to authorize surgeries. I can only do what I can, let my attorney do what he can and wait for something to come in the mail. either denial or accept, then appeal if needed. Thanks for checking in!
