I receive $1,017 monthly. I waited 5 years to receive it and on my second appeal I was approved. I only received 4 months back pay. I missed 5 years of employment and I only worked 3 months in the ten years that they came up with a figure. Not fair! Not ENOUGH TO LIVE ON. 😢
SO I just started the process with you guys not long ago, I just wanna ask cause I didn't in the email how long does it generally take with you guys help based on your past cases?

Ha - understand the discretion :). But the good news is that disability payments generally go *up* year over year. Since the 1970s, the SSA has implemented a "Cost of Living Adjustment" annually. There were three years on record where benefit payments stayed flat - but every other year, benefit recipients have seen their payments go up!

I'm not answering this so the govt can just decide how much to lower it by for the next 10 years lol
