I am obviously new to this and trying to get as much info. as I can ahead of time so I am not overwhelmed when all of the SS paperwork comes in.

I have been on WC, so that will also play a big part in my monthly figures. I am thankful that my entire SSDI process was just a couple weeks less than a year, as I have seen and heard some people go through years waiting and fighting.

Any insight would be appreciated!! Thanks.
You need to make sure that all worker's comp info has been submitted. It should be in the electronic file. If the WC data is not sufficient, the PC will assume that you are still getting it.

60-90 days for retroactive benefits is a reasonable time frame, like your lawyer said.

The WC info is up to date and I am still getting that. MMI rated 75% permanent partial disabled from the WC, so unless they decide to offer a large amount for me to close out with open medical, I guess I will collect both, with the offset of course....

My attorney is handling both my Comp case and SS case, so he has submitted all necessary forms. We did the appeal paperwork together in the office and he mailed it in. They (SS) knew from the beginning I was on comp. I think the issue for them will be keeping straight when my comp pay amount changed (even though they have it)!
