well I have too much money saved up from when I was working 8 months ago (3 years in the military).
4k in the bank was 2k too much for SSI, lol. I meet the qualifications for SSDI based off my work history at 22 years old which is a plus. I'm doubtful I get approved and this will be a hard 3-6 month wait. I claimed bipolar disorder and also added anxiety. I have limited medical records but I am actively being treated. __________________ This can't be life. |

I know it can be a long wait. Just know you might have to file an appeal if not approved at first. And you can always apply for SSI at a later date if you need to.

I didn't approve for both ssi and ssdi either. As for medical records they went back 3 yrs only and 15 yrs on work history. I was sure to mention all medical issues including back problems from a car wreck. It took me 6 mo to be approved but that's not the norm. My pdoc did fill out paperwork stating I was unable to stay employed. And I used a lawyer my pdoc recommended who took 25% of back pay. PM me anytime if you have questions.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
