Hi I recently received my explanation of determination letter. It says "we have determined that your disability based on your vision and statutory blindness began on 1-30-07."

I called the SSA office and asked them what my status is: The lady said I was approved. Just waiting on my award letter. I was denied the first time. My question is: Does this mean I will receive SSD or only SSI? I asked the lady at the SSA office and she seemed to think it was for SSD, which is what I was hoping for.

And, about how much longer do you think it will be before I receive my award letter?

Thanks,
Ken
