My original award was closed end 16 months back pay in Jan 2011 which covered Sep 2008 to May 2010 (SSI was included in that which was deducted) and no monthly benefit. I filed a reconsideration appeal within 30 days and won in Oct. 2011. My award letter says "We are witholding your Social Security benefits for Sep 2010 through Sep 2011. We may have to reduce these benefits if you received SSI for this period". Which I didn't. It goes on to say "We will pay you any Social Security benefits you are due for this period" For some reason they changed the disabled date from Jun 2010, which would have been the next month following my original award, to Sep 2010. When I called the local office about the change, they said I could appeal but I would be appealing the whole decision, not just the date part, so I figured I better just let it go as is. I hope this makes sense.
