I applied for disability in October of 2018. As expected, I was turned down, so I hired a lawyer. Until 2015 I had worked for 15 years (p/t waitress).
My lawyer told me that it would be 2 years before I was approved, because there are only 2 judges in my county and they're backed up. She does believe, however, that I will be approved.
As far as I know, neither my pdoc, nor therapist have received any paperwork to fill out yet, which concerns me. In addition, I have to have surgery on my achilles tendon, so that doctor should also be contacted.
I am supposed to call my lawyer in May to find out if an appt. with a judge has been scheduled. I am quite sure that COVD will have a mess of an effect on my case, in the sense that everything will be backed up.
I wish I had started my application 3 years before I did.
btw, I know several people who are under 50 and receive SSDI.
