Hi,
I was wondering how long it took everyone to get an answer back after submitting the short form CDR? I read one thread where it only took one person 4 weeks after submitting the short form CDR. What is everyone else's experience? How long did it take for you to hear back from SSA whether your benefits would be continued or not? Thanks for your answer... |

I received my short form on February 16 and mailed it back on February 17. I have heard nothing as of 3/9/14.
In 2010 I had the dreaded long form. It came in August around the 5th. And around the 7th of September I received info that I had to attend a Consultative Examination (Scary as I had been receiving continuous treatment since 2005. I went to CE in mid October and around the 20th of November I received my letter stating benefits would continue. This time receiving the short form was kind of a relief as they don't expect much medical improvement in my case, but they say that 5% of these are pulled at random so if I get the long form, it is what it is. I know its easier said then done, but try not to get too worked up over this. They probably mailed several hundred thousand in this February batch. Hope this helped and keep us informed.

Bobby, he told me he'd never done the Consultative Exam. I figured I had enough documentation from years of treatment had the exam went against me, I could have appealed. But it wasn't an issue anyway.
As of 3/17 still haven't heard back yet about a month now on my short form cdr. |

it could happen at any time for anyone but most likely you wont get another short or long form at least for the period of your scheduled review
