I heard that people are not easily approved on the first try, but I was approved. I think a lot of it has to do with not only your evals, but also the slant of the worker to whom you are assigned. This is just my theory, but I know my worker pushed to get my evals/info in, and wrote the recommendation herself without the doctors necessarily seeing the paperwork before that. I don't know what I did to deserve that, but I'm eternally grateful.
