Thank goodness, I know how hard it is when your sick and you can't work, and the bills are piling up. Hopefully you'll start getting those checks soon. Do you have direct deposit? Don't feel like a skumbag because your sick, I'm sure your family understands.

Thanks!

I do have direct deposit... and I've been checking my checking account compulsively

awesome for you , glad to hear a happy ending just breath now

That's great news ! Congrads !

It is wonderful and so glad for your new status!

Peace,

I checked my bank account this morning...
all my back pay is there!!!!

I couldn't believe it.
I waited 1 1/2 yrs. to get approved, but I got my back pay within 2 weeks of my lawyer calling to notify me of the decision!

I still haven't received my decision letter, or explanation of benefits; but I guess that's par for the course!

So many loads off of my shoulders now...
I am one happy lady!

Good for you! I too had a long road - my wait time was almost double yours - 3 years! I got my decision on Feb 3, 2010 (the judge told me at the hearing I was fully favorable so I didnt have to wait for a letter) and I got my backpay on March1, 2010. My first benefit check will be April 28th. Its def a great feeling to have some of the pressure off isnt it?

Congrats again and good luck.
