My dear Rose: Thank you for the link. I looked and looked on the "Notice of Decision" and could not find any information regarding a CDR. After reading your reply I looked at the other papers I received. Sure enough there was an "Award" notice. It stated my CDR would be in 5 - 7 years. Is this from the date SS states I was disabled or the date I received the first payment? I would be between 59 - 61 years of age. From what I've read elsewhere on the forum CDR's are random and generated by a computer which determines if it will be the short or long form. My biggest fear is facing the "state" psychologist whose opinion is more subjective than those providers I see regularly.

Thank you again. As they say: A Rose by any other name is still a rose...
