Ssdi Application Status Changed

[Honest John Lance]

Well I checked the SS website for my application status and it said that a decision has been made. Checked with the bank and there was a large deposit from SS for backpay, no doubt. Wow, so glad it is over and with success. Had a really good judge and very experienced attorney. Thank you Lord!

This GREAT news and if the SSA award was solely for SC conditions, time to apply for TDIU and tell them of this award.

Thanks Berta, I just sent in a NOD on my back asking for a rating for bilateral severe nerve root compression. I am 20% for Degenerative Arthritus of the Lumbar Spine. I asked for an increase and they left me at 20% because my forward flexion is > 30%. When they considered my claim they had 2 MRIs indicating the nerve root compression and the C&P exam noted bilateral peripheral nerves being affected and Lasegue’s sign being positive. They basically ignored that information.

This GREAT news and if the SSA award was solely for SC conditions, time to apply for TDIU and tell them of this award.
