A place to explore attorneys for social security disability
Q: How do people care and feed for their families, while they wait for a social security disability benefits claim approval? A: Waiting for a final decision about your social security benefits claim can range from months to years. Claimants are told to expect a 90 to 120 timeframe for an initial application to be reviewed. A large number of initial applications are not approved after the first step. If an application is not approved, you can apply for reconsideration and, if you are denied again, appeal to have your case heard before an administrative judge. The additional steps add time to process, of course.
