HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted November 3, 2012 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 3, 2012 I believe you generally have 4 yrs to appeal an SSDI denial. If it's been less than 4 yrs, I'd do an appeal rather than start a new claim but that also depends on your VA disability award date. pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATVer Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 I was denied in May of this year. My VA award date goes back to Nov 09. Just recently got the letter for 100%, dated Oct 19 of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted November 4, 2012 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 4, 2012 Don't waste any time appeal asap. Veterans deserve real choice for their health care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Also, keep in mind that SSA does not have to follow in step with VBA evaluations/decisions and visa-versa. Carlie passed away in November 2015 she is missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest terrysturgis Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Also I would reccomend you find a "GOOD" SS disability attorney from your local area to help you win your SSD claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetWalker Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 If you live in the Jurisdiction of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals then you're in luck. In a recent decision the court decided that Social Security must give GREAT WEIGHT to VA awards when considering SSDI awards. Most denied SSDI claims are denied based on incomplete or unreadable paperwork or your disability doesn't fit into their guidelines. Member of the Church of the Enlighten Pistolero.
