Congratulations to both of you. Either they are getting better at paying out benefits or you 2 are lucky. It took me 6 motnhs to get my backpay. Anyway this takes so much off you now!

CONGRATULATIONS on your wonderful news. It really is a blessing when your finally get it isnt it? I had a wonderful lawyer who made everything easy and almost painless but it still was pretty nerve racking with all the other problems that go along with it. LIKE THE NO MONEY!!! Well I hope that it helps give you some comfort!!::Good-Luck:

I guess my benefit calculations were easy:
I never qualified for SSI; and I don't have any children, pensions, or workman's comp claims.
I hope that everyone's payouts are as quick as mine!

Thank you all for your congrats!

FYI- I've been checking my online application status, and it still said "a decision has not been made on your application" until yesterday, the same day my back pay was deposited. So much for that system!

Woo Hoo ! Congrads !

Hello Ohkay my name is chim I'm also in the same boat I just my fully favorable decison last Mon and am wodering how long it would take me to get my award letter for my SSDI. I have a 3 year old daughter and I'm not sure if she will get a check every month or do I have to apply for her as well?? Anyway congrats to you Ohkay.....

You do have to apply for your daughter, it's not automatic, but I applied for my kids as I was doing my application because they included those pages. Are you sure you haven't applied for her ? Best to call SSA and see what info they have on you.

Good new congrats

wtg IM WAITING AS WELL FINIALLY GOT APPROVED AFTER 3 YEARS HOPE YOU GET YOUR MONEY IN TIME GL AND GOD BLESS

Written favorable decision 4/30/10. It is reasonable to expect the first check within 30-60 days and retroactive benefits 60-90 days later. The verbal ok phone call from your attorney does not start the payment center working on processing your claim, only the written decision starts the clock.

It is not just pushing one button either. If you also have an SSI claim, that will have be adjudicated before the full retroactive SSDI benefits are determined since there can be an offset.

But when it does come, enjoy your tropical vacation or the Wii.
