Hi everybody. About two weeks ago my husband received a letter for a SSDI Mental exam in coming in March, but just today his case worker called and said the Mental Exam has been cancelled, I ask why, she said its not needed.
Should we be concerned? When I asked the status of the SSDI case, the case worker said still in review. And my husband applied for SSDI in Oct 2010. My husband suffers from seizures, depression/anxiety and arthritis. For what reasons would a mental exam be cancelled? Thank you |

Thanks! Yeah I found that odd too. I'm hoping more respond here. Maybe this happened to others.
Yet if my husband was denied wouldnt have the case worker said so when i called and asked why was the mental exam cancelled? |

Hi again! Does anyone else have an opinion on this? I'm the original poster here. As I said , my husbands Mental Exam was cancelled back in late Feb for a March Appt. I did call our case worker and the 800# on his status and nothing has changed.
Why would they say he doesnt need an exam, yet not give us a decison on his case? He applied in October 2010 for SSDI & SSI. And finally, the person i spoke to from the SSDI 800# said at first that my husband might be in the status of Presumptive Disability? I did google that, but I dont understand if thats a positive or negative on his chances of winning for SSDI. Thanks always!!! Hope everybody is well. |

What's going on with the seizues ? It sounds like there is something severe enough that he would qualify with the depression dx/need for a mental health exam.
You never know for sure until you get that approval letter
