The process usuall takes at least 6-8 months to make a decision. And at least 90 or more % get denied the first time. I cant say whether your husbands income is going to be an in fluence or if you are under his insurance program for medical or your own will determine medicaid/medicare benefits later. If you do get approved you will be paid retroactively from the application date this time, if you get denied, get a lawyer, hell tell you eveything you will want to inclue in the application the next time and if you are under you husbands policysever your self go on disability at your job and get cobra for a few months till you find out about the disability.
