Online it states I'm approved for social security disability. I received a letter stating I was approved for the medical but they have not decided whether I qualify under the non medical rules.
Online it shows I have 2 claims. One for SSDI and one for SSI (Disability). I did not apply for SSI disability but this is what it says under that link:

A Decision Has Been Made On Your Benefit Application
Your claim for Disability benefits has been approved. A detailed notice has been sent to you with your benefit information. For more information, please use the Benefit Verification Letter to check your benefit details.
If you disagree with the decision, you may request an appeal within 60 days of the date on the "Notice of Decision" you receive. A written request of appeal is required. You may use Form SSA-561 (Request for Reconsideration) to submit your request to your local Social Security office.
What does this mean and now that the medical has been approved how long will it take for the non medical. I can view my work history so I know I have enough work history. Thank you in advance
Hi there,
It means that you meet the medical qualifications, which is one half of the requirements to qualify for benefits. The SSA must determine if you meet the technical requirements, which in the case of SSI means determining if your income and financial resources are under the SSI maximum for both.

I am only going for disability Not SSI and when I did my application appointment he had already told me I worked long enough and had put enough and told me a monthly amount I would qualify for. Is that what ssa is looking at.length of time worked and amount contributed?

Hi There,
To qualify for SSDI, not only do you need to meet the medical requirements, but you need enough work credits. Work credits are earned by working and paying in Social Security. If you were told you worked enough and paid enough, he likely meant you meet the work credit requirements for your age.

In reply to My SSI was denied, but my ssd by Kim (not verified)
Hi Kim,
You were denied SSI, most likely because of the strict financial requirements that are needed to get approved. You can appeal that decision though.
Your SSDI application is still being reviewed. They haven't come to a decision regarding that. You will have to wait until they fully review it and make a decision before you hear back from them regarding that.

Hello I receive a letter from social security my daughter medically approved for ssi benfit and I have appointed for financial documents rent income asset to see if my daughter qualified for ssi benfit what do this mean my daughter or not
In reply to Hello I receive a letter from by Alexis (not verified)
Hi Alexis,
That's a great question. Your daughter was approved medically, meaning the SSA consider her disability to be severe enough to warrant SSI benefits.
The SSA will need your financial records/documents because SSI is a needs based program and it is only for people who are very financially needy.
It's still pending but if you meet the financial requirements, your daughter will be approved for SSI.

You can track your progress on your MySSA account. You can also ask your disability attorney (if you have one), since they are the first to hear to whether your case was approved or denied.
They denied my SSI,but waiting for info on my SSDI,did they denied my SIS because I get child support?

Hi Roz,
I'm sorry to hear that. They probably denied your SSI because of your income. SSI is a needs based program. It's still possible you could qualify for SSDI benefits.

Hi Tiffany,
That does seem long. But it generally takes around 3-5 months to hear back from the SSA. If you don't hear anything back by the end of the month I would check in with them.

There are a couple ways you can. You can call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213, check your MySSA account (you may have to create one first if you have not) or call your lawyer or advocate if you worked with one.

Stopped working May 2016 after 26 yrs in Law Enforcement due to but not limited to (2) back surgeries, diabetes, gastroparesis, and end renal disease . Applied for SSDI July 2016 and was denied SSI right away and eventually denied SSDI. Went through the whole appeal process and October 2018 was awarded 16 months back pay by the ALJ (still not received). In the wait of the appeal court day appearance, I returned back to work in November 2017 but had already began PD at home August 2017. Developed a hernia in November 2018 which prohibited me from working b/c of the pain, surgery to repair was December 2018. Did not return to work thereafter. Not until several visits to the local SSA office was I told that I would have to do a new application for being on Dialysis. Application completed March 2019. As of June 6th to today, I've received an State started processing the medical portion of your benefit application to receiving a phone call stating I will receive a packet to complete and return, then receiving another phone call the next day saying that a medical decision had been made and I'll be receiving a letter in two weeks, to receiving a SSI check and the last claim status posted June 10th that a medical decision has been made and they are working to process my benefit application. What this looks like and what's holding up my back pay?
