hi--

i am new here and wondeirng if someone can please help me.
i had a hearing for ssdi and ssi (disability) and i won my case for both. i live in washington state.
the decision was found fully favorable to me.

i won this case back in june of 2004. i have been reciveing a
tiny sum of $338 that goes directly to my landlord and i see none of it. it does not cover all of my rent. every month i must scramble to find some way to pay my bills, eat etc.

i have a very difficult time holding a regular job wich is why i won my case...

however--i was lead to believe that i would be recieving more $ than the $338. that the combination of the two forms
(ssi and ssdi) would total about $838 or so per month.

i have an attorney and have been to socail security offices and called them many times.

no one seems to be able to tell me anything about when i will actually recieve any money or retroactive disabilty payments.

if anyone has been throught this process and could tell me what is happening and could offer advice to me. im all ears for listening.

also--i am an artist/photogrpaher/webdesigner if anyone is interested in my images. (i can mail you privately for the link to the images) i have them for sale to try to generate revenue for my rent.

thanks!
