Cindi, if you don't mind telling, do you know the excuse for the ALJ changing your onset date? You're clearly not old enough for the Grid Rules to be a factor. Has it been 4 years since you've worked at all?
I concur that your monthly benefit is more important, but it is unfortunate that you won't be receiving any backpay. The bigger objection is that you'll have to wait for Medicare, which I'm sure you could have found a use for. Some of your expenses also decrease by not working--smaller gas bills, clothing budget, lunches out, etc. |

The change of onset date should be explained in your award letter. It should say your decision was Partially Favorable. Unless you agreed to a change of onset at the hearing in exchange for an on the record approval--then some judges will write the decision as Fully Favorable. I get you might not care about the details, but this kind of info can be helpful for others down the road. It's nice to have income just in time for the holidays, huh? I remember my son desperately wanted a telescope and when I got backpay from my first application I was so happy to finally get it for him. By that point, he had moved on from his astronomy phase... It's easy to go without yourself, but the same can't be said in relationship to our kids. |
