I'm so excited, I received my letter today that I was approved for ssd. It's been almost a year and I'm finally going to get it. They said the back pay will come first, than regular payments next month. Don't anyone give up! Good luck to everyone!!!!! Barb

Congratulations,
Not that anyone wants this to happen, but when you are disabled and have fought so hard- then this check is such a deserved blessing.
We almost lost our home and my back pay check came just in time to save what we had worked so hard for. It was such a blessing to not have to tell my child on everything- "No- You can't have it honey, we don't have the money".
This certainly doesn't come close to the wages that I made as a nurse- but if I could be back working- I certainly would be.

Hang in there to all who are truly disabled and are fighting this fight right now.
It is time consuming and frustrating but it usually works out for the best.

Congrats, I am so happy for you!!!!!! Just wanted to let you know it gives those of us still waiting, encouragement. Did you get approved through a hearing? I am just guessing because you said it had been about a year. God bless.
