Hi,

Noticed your post. One of the major reasons for longer waits to determine
disablity is due to the back log in claims and not enough judges. Some
states have a bigger backlog resulting in longer waits. I cannot remember
the exact site address but there used to be a listing of the wait times in
various states. Some states have a shorter wait time than others. You
might try googling disablity claims backlogs in various states or something
similiar to see what pops up for you state. I also know in some cases due
to the backlog some claims are being moved to others states.

Hope this helps.
