Do you have access to other healthcare LJ ?

My husband has health insurance for our family, so I have been able to 'decline' MC and keep an extra $96 a month in my SSDI check.

As others have mentioned, there is a big range in the dates for when backpay is sent, some have tied it to which payment center you get your check from.

I got a big ol' check in the mail BEFORE I even got my acceptance letter, so it really depends. I would give it 90 days from the acceptance....after that I would be calling every week asking where my money is.

I get my check the third Wednesday of the month.
