Hi Folks,

After 5 months of waiting for SSDI, I finally got a letter in the mail today but I'm a bit confuddled by it. The letter gave me a Temporary Password Request Code to use to access my account with SS.

I have not received any approval/denial letter in the mail yet and am wondering if this letter is a pre-cursor to an approval.

It says "If you are a new benficiary, please make sure you have received your award notice or your first payment before you try to register a password."

So, why send me this temporary password to log in and set my own password if I shouldn't do it before I have an approval or first date of award? Did I get this letter in the wrong order or something, and does it mean that I have or will be approved for SSDI?

Wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them and what it meant.

Thanks for reading and replying.

Always,
seara
