Hi, last Thursday,went to my local SS office, tried to have them issue me an emergency check from back pay, I had been told I could do this after 30 days, but I was told my backpay/monthly amounts were being set-up that day, they couldn't issue a check. If I don't receive anything with-in 10 days, to call the local office and they should have a letter of the new amounts etc.
Gosh, this is taking forever....Have you recieved your benefits letter or Medi-care info?. Thanks! |

Hi sm08!
I haven't received my backpay yet...I am so nervous about that. Last time I called, last week, they said to call back on the 24th and that will be 60 days. I am sure they will then say it takes 90 days...then 120, etc, etc. I did get my medicare stuff. Thank God! I need that backpay though to pay the 20% and the hosp deductable and stuff...as soon as I got medicare i saw my fam dr who sent me to a podiatrist, a back dr and a hematologist...I am having iron infusions due to anemia, I have severe spinal stenosis which I need surgery for (but I am going to wait a few years...I have a 2 and a 4 year old to chase) and I am having surgery on my heel...partial achillies tear and bone spur. I am not even on ssd for that stuff...I am on for bipolar disorder, personaility disorder, ocd...ahhhhh..the list goes on and on.... I am so so so sorry to sound like I am whining!!!! It feels good to vent though!!! Thank you for listening. Keep me posted as far as your status. |

Hi, thanks for responding. I'm still waiting for anything: Maybe what held it up for me, is that I did receive State disability two times through the time I waited to be approved and I think that was paid back.
I don't know, I'm just so fraustrated with all this. I think the SSI that was paid to me I have to pay back out of the SSDI back-pay, I told them I din't think I would be approved for it anyways, so what was the point of me getting it then. It was a small amount too! This also, may have held my back-pay back too. I just had an EMG test last friday, it wasn't as bad as I thought. I know I will have to pay my 20% too. Colbeymore, how long after you recieved your Favorable letter, did you recieve your backpay and benefit letter? Thanks, gotta go make dinner before hubby comes home! |

I received a "favorable decision" letter I believe sometime during the last two weeks in May and received my backpay on monday june 14th. I received my backpay before the "detailed letter" explaining my calculated benefit amount each month. I call once a week to get an update still no news

California's State Disability does not have to be "paid back". But it may or may not result in an offset if the total of SDI and SSDI exceeds 80% of your average current earnings. That is called public disability benefits offset. Talk to the SSDI claims rep. Those documents need to be submitted to SSA. |
