Yesterday I had to notify SS that my Client isn't getting SSI so please release the other $21K of past-due benefits.
The madness continues . . .
Today I had to notify SS that another Client isn't getting SSI so please release the other $18K of past-due benefits.
So much EXTRA UNNECESSARY work!😵‍💫

SS will never cease to amaze me. My Client was just approved in January but received notice for a Continuing Disability Review (CDR) this week. It usually takes years before a CDR, and they're not optional, so I provided my Client with documentation and advised him to call. The agent didn't know why the letter was sent! 🤣

Fantastic news on two of the most unbelievable cases in over 20 years of practice! One Fully Favorable decision after the original application had to be refiled 11 months later and one Appeals Council Remand that never even went before a judge!
It's Friday & 5 o'clock.
