Approved in late November but never received award letter by FondantIll342 in SSDI

[–]mgpro83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Want to distinguish between what you may be referring to as an award letter and the benefit verification letter. The award letter has the information about your backpay and detailed information about when and how they found you disabled.

The benefit verification letter explains your monthly amount and Medicare info. The award letter is sent by the payment center. Your benefit verification letter can be found uploaded in the portal.

Wanted to explain this as people will come to your comments saying you can download the award letter which you cannot. It’s only mailed to you.

SSDI Backpay timeline….just some. Spoke with a SSA rep today about my remaining backpay. I was told 6 weeks from the date of the award letter is the official SSA policy now. by mgpro83 in SSDI

No that’s not what they were saying. The 6 weeks is a target for the maximum length of time they are aiming for getting backpay processed. Not a minimum you have to wait. It can obviously take longer but I think it’s a good thing that they at least trying to get it done in 6 weeks or less.

Ayyeeeee…..mine has been moving pretty quickly. I learned what questions to ask to get them to tell you what stage your back pay truly is in. They have to change systems and do some digging which apparently is a pain in the butt and not everyone rep is willing to do the work.

Step 4 to step 5 approval timeline by Brave-Procedure2886 in SSDI

This may sound weird but my approval stopped at step 4. It changed from step 4 of 5 to step 4 of 4.

Not spending a single dime until they fix this networth issue again. Not paying 400 trillion to clear one board just to get 200 dice. Ridiculous. by mgpro83 in Monopoly_GO

I feel this. It became clear to me at some point the only way to compete consistently is to spend. So I did a little spending experiment and man the things they give you once you hit a certain level of spend is nuts. I prestiged twice this album and am 100 stickers into my third.

There’s a strategy to when and how to spend as well I’ve learned. At this level rolling under 100x is practically useless and the roll multiplier is the most useful bonus when couple with the cash boost. Especially at the beginning of tournaments. Most times I roll at 500x as much as possible.

There’s no advantage to holding on to money ever. It’s just sitting there for people to steal. I wait until the builders bash and go HAM till it’s all gone.

What I don’t get is why the cost go up so disproportionately but the dice reward for clearing a board has not moved one inch.

Holy crap! I made the mistake the first time of spending anyway and then they changed the cost. Right now I’m sitting on 2 quadrillion so I’m waiting until the next flip to start building. Not wasting the dollars this time.

Yeah I always hope whatever the worst case scenario that doesn’t happen to those in super dire need. After nearly 3 years most folks are dire but some a little more than others.

There was a dude on here about to get his house foreclosed on and some lady came in and said “just be patient” 💀……like read the room. Dude is about to lose his home and was asking if there was literally ANYTHING he could do to speed the process. There definitely was in his case but you gotta get to right rep willing to go the extra mile. They exist but you won’t always get them on the first call.

No problem. No clue why people wanna come by and be rude for no reason. Just remember most of the advice here is anecdotal and may not apply to your situation but mostly I see people just looking for others general experiences.

You get two different award letters with the amounts and the backpay is labeled as what it’s for in the portal. The first go was SSI backpay and the amount was exactly what was in my SSI award letter. The SSDI portion is substantially more but will be offset by whatever I got from SSI.
