When Do I Find Out if I Won and When do I Get Paid?

Social Security judges rarely announce their decisions at the conclusion of your hearing, so you may be wondering when you will find out how the judge ruled, and, if you won, when will you get your first check.
As I discuss in this video, you can normally expect to wait four to six weeks after your hearing to receive the judge's written decision. If the decision says "favorable" or "partially favorable" you have been approved and soon you will start receiving letters from the SSA payment center. If the decision says "unfavorable" then you did not win and you should speak to your lawyer about filing an appeal with the Appeals Council or filing a new application.
Once you receive your favorable decision, you can expect to wait another 30 days before you see any money. Payments are issued by SSA payment centers called "MODS" and staff there process your claim. If we do not hearing anything from the MODS after 30 days, your attorney can start calling to move the process along.

When I was 14 years old my dad suffered a massive heart attack. 60 percent of his heart was destroyed. My dad worked faithfully for same job for over 30 years and was a WW2 vet but several Drs told my dad his days working were over. There was my mom, my dad and four of us kids still living at home. SS disability repeatedly denyed my dad and for 2 years we barely survived. I thought the stress alone was going to kill my dad. We had no food , no utilities. If it wasnt for Catholic charities and salvation army we would never had made it. Dad suffered from horrible angina attacks and depression during that period. I am 48 years old and learned from an early age the corruption and disregard for people the government and judges have. Thank God he finally won his case only to find out a couple years later he had terminal colon cancer. I lost any and all respect for judges and the government after how badly we suffered and still consider that period of my childhood horribly traumatic.

[@angelsbutterflies6293]

My condolences I'm so sorry to hear that , sad story and God Bless you and you're family and I'm so sorry about you're father and what happened to you're family . Unfortunately people deal with this everyday and the government doesn't care and it all depends but you literally got to fight tooth and nail and it's a long drawn out process sometimes when it shouldn't be that way because everyone's case and disabilities are different. But I am sorry God Bless you and you're family.

We had same problem when I was 8 year-old an I had 4 brother from 15 to 3 year old thank god for good neighbors for food they would put food on porch for us this was back in 1968. Great people never forgot them. That was in Herrington ks.

[@kellyyork3898]

Get registered at the My Social Security website because subtitles seem to show up first there. Your lawyer may also know first since SSA seems to contact them first. However, lawyers’ offices WERE/are closed due to COVID and many lawyers are working from home. So you may know something before your lawyer does. Also, the US Mail has been slow due to COVID, but you may see small changes on-line at MY SOCIAL SECURITY that hint that something is happening. For example, it may say they have received your info and are reviewing your request for disability benefits and then you may see a date for funds to be deposited, etc. one guy I know woke up one morning and checked his bank account as usual. The SSA had deposited thousands in his account...then he checked MY SOCIAL SECURITY and saw he had become eligible for disability benefits and Medicare with a Medicare number given him to use with a retroactive date for MEDICARE Benefits.

Medical factors and social security is looking into the non medical factors is this a good sign I won cause I haven't remarried and nothing change since Pam died what does the non medical factors mean

If you are pursuing disabled widower's benefits the evidence needs to show that you became disabled as of the date you turned 50 and that your disability began within 7 years of your spouse's death. These are the technical "non-medical" factors.

[@ssdattorney]

I agree. I just read today that the average wait time for a decision is 78 days, up from 56 days just a few years ago. The judge sends the file to a writer out of state, who drafts the decision and sends it back . Seems like an inefficient system to me.

It means that the judge felt like he or she needed more evidence to decide your case. THis is not inherently a good or bad thing. It depends on what the evidence shows.

[@ssdattorney]

I don't know what all that means. You do have 60 days from the date you receive your denial to file an appeal. If you lost at the hearing your next appeal would be to the Appeals Council (or you can start over).

My ex husband fought with social security for years because he had strokes and other health issues and he was able to go to his hearing but the sad part is by the time he found out he won he passed away and that's just not right at all.

[@makycaris4672]

I was denied in the first time because I had over 2 grand in the bank - on the hearing over phone they told me I was denied because had too much money in the bank is that normal / then after a year was appealed and they told me if I have more than two grand in savings account / I had less than 2 grand this time and they told me I have a good chance of getting it - they wanted to check my medical before they made a final decision?

In an SSI case your income and resources can disqualify you. In an SSDI case, your bank account balance has no bearing on anything.

Tj Wakefield that's not true it took 3yrs to for my husband's SSDI to finally get approved. He lost his hand on July 4th 2014 and has mental illness he was denied February 2015, his attorney appealed then they sent him a letter for a video monitor hearing his attorney turned it down she knew what was best for his case. Then in November 2016 we seen a judge his attorney never met him so she was unsure of the questions he'd ask she said he's new and he's a tough judge his ratings for approval is 20% favorable. I think attorneys know how the outcome would be based on what questions? It took another year for the judge to make a decision and today we found out he was approved.

[@jefferyhall7364]

Can you still win your hearing if the ve say they are jobs you can do

[@ssdattorney]

Jeffery, understand that the VE is only answering questions posed to him/her by the judge. Some of those questions include only mild limitations and will result in answers that identify jobs. Other questions include a more severe level of limitations and will result in testimony that there are no jobs. If the judge asks only one question and the answer is "here are 3 jobs" that is not a good sign. But judges rarely do that. The better question to ask: which of the judge's hypothetical questions represents what the judge is really thinking?"

Iam 39 years old and have had 10 surgeries in 10 years. 6 surgeries on my stomach total. As far as my medical records is concerned my disability is undeniable. I went to my hearing and the judge immediately interrogated me about marijuana use which Iam not a smoker. He said he saw on my files that I said I smoked daily. This interrogation process went on for about ten minutes. His demeanor was very aggressive which threw me off because I was not expecting this. Although I've been through alot medically my physique looks athletic because for years I was a powerlifter prior to my pathology. The vocational expert said I could no longer work at jobs Iam accustomed to but I can be something like a mail clerk. My lawyer then stated that I would miss considerable time at work and would be subsequently terminated and the expert agreed. Is this a good sighn?

Judges don't actually write the decisions. The written decision in your case will be written by a Social Security staff lawyer in a central location near Washington. Once the draft decision is written, it will be sent to the judge for review. Assuming no revisions, that process can take 1 to 4 months. Frustrating for all.

What happens when the Vocational worker, finds two jobs? Then when the judge asks the hypothetical question the Vocational worker says, no there wouldn't be.

[@ssdattorney]

Some judges ask a series of hypothetical questions to the VE. Depending on the question the VE may find one or more jobs. One of the questions that the judge asks will represent what the judge is thinking regarding the claimant. The problem is that we don't necessarily know which one. I will also tell you that many judges will ask a question that assumes all the limitations set out in testimony (in other words "if I believe everything you said"). That question may or may not reflect what the judge has concluded. Bottom line: you want the answer "no jobs" but I feel most comfortable when several of the judge's questions result in "no jobs" testimony.

[@ssdattorney]

The initial application and first appeal (request for reconsideration) are decided by non-judges - employees of the state agency of your state government. If denied at recon, you would request a hearing and go before a federal administrative law judge. About 1/3 of claims are approved at the initial application. Those that file a recon appeal have about a 10% chance of winning and those who appeal and go to a hearing are approved at about 46%.

My status states a medical decision has been made and we are working on processing your decisions what does that mean thank you

[@ssdattorney]

It means that SSA has reviewed the medical information in your file and made a decision about whether your impairments prevent you from working. Now they are looking at the non-medical factors - do you have enough credits? are there any offsets (in an SSI claim)

I filed for ssdi and ssi my hearing was 8/25/2017 I had my 3rd heart attack 8/28/2017 online it says ssi denied. And for ssdi it says under review a medical decision was made...what does this mean

[@ssdattorney]

I don't know - that doesn't make sense to me.

[@trinarobinson7769]

Social Security Disability videos it says appeal under review a medical decision was made and we are working to process your decision and a rep may contact me for additional information. Dated 1/23/18. I applied after my 1st heart attack 12/2015,denied 5/16 appealed second heart attack 1/2017 denied reconsideration,6/17 appealed got hearing date 8/2017 judge got all my records had to 3rd heart attack 3 days later, notified them and turned in records . I'm confused. Does this mean I will be denied ssdi also
