I'm happy for you that you were able to get it. I was actually on it for a year and a half when I was in my 20's, I got on it first try. It's more difficult now for some reason. I'm actually going through Allsup for help in getting on it. They get 25% of whatever I get from back pay, but after that I get 100%. So hopefully it goes through this time. Did you have to do a functional capacity test?
There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason why some get it and others don't.
