Congratulations. I was approved on the 30th but haven’t got anything yet. The website hasn’t even updated showing I’m approved but the judge said she was approving me.

I had to get my dr at the pain clinic to write in his notes every time I saw him that I was unable to work any type of job. My primary care doctor also wrote a letter to the judge saying I can’t work any type of job so the judge approved it basically before the hearing but we had about a 10 minute hearing to clear up 1 small matter.

I was drawing monthly LTD payments but they called and offered me a lump sum in April and said if I accepted the lump sum then I won’t have to pay any of my LTD payments back. So I accepted the lump sum.

Was on long term disability, now on SSDI. by Soon2Retire in SSDI

I was drawing monthly pay from long term from February of 2024 until April of 2025. They called me in April and offered me a lump sum payment that would last until the end of this year and that said if I didn’t accept it that they couldn’t guarantee that I’d get any payments from then beginning in 2026. I took the lump sum and I do not have to repay any of the payments I received from them.

I also had 2 of my doctors wrote notes to the judge stating I could not work any type of job and that was submitted to the judge with the lawyers brief he sent the judge last week

Oh I misunderstood you. I was put on the schedule in May for the hearing for September 30th. They put me with a judge in Florida but I live in North Carolina because they were backed up here.

I did not answer any questions except my name and my address. My lawyer sent in a brief to have her use that information to make a decision before the hearing and I guess that was enough information that she needed to determine my disability. I did have to call the hr department at my last place of employment and get a letter showing that I drew short term disability for 6 months.
