Yea, you didn't get a check? Call them. My mom even got one and she's on retirement SS, Jim did too and he's SSDI.

If I was approved for SSDI effective 2/09 should I have received the $250 check everyone is talking about. I just received my back pay 6/10 and now my children's 9/10

I received my approval letter in late October 2009(onset date June 2007) and the first check I received was for 250 dollars. I think that was for the year 2008. You can always call SSA (800 #) and ask them.

I was reading at CNN.com today that they are projecting a Social Security COLA for 2012 too be 4/10 of one percent. Wow-don't even bother with a raise if its going to be that low. That wouldn't be enough to buy a sub at Subway.

Default need raise
I heard the other day that they were thinking and voting on giving us 250.00 this year. I thought I heard a bit on the news last night that they were not giving us any kind of cost of living raise for 2011. I kind of worry a great deal about this.

Tongue Disgusted
I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED WITH OUR GOVERNMENT!

Did the president, senators, governors, & congressman get a pay raise in 2010? Will they issue themselves another pay raise in 2011?

I worked hard for as long as my disease allowed & actually started working @ 11 years old; now that I NEED HELP I am really feeling LET DOWN by our govenment.

While there will be no COLA in 2011 THEY WILL INCREASE MEDICARE & THE INFAMOUS DONUT HOLE IS GOING TO INCREASE.

I am UNABLE TO WORK - so WITHOUT EXTRA MONEY HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PAY THESE EXTRA COSTS?

Anyone else in the same boat?
