Thank you Rosemary! I was told by social security that it is now a normal policy to have a 6 month waiting period, so although I applied in January my first check won't come until July and I will never get the back pay from January. As I am a single mother of a 17 year old and have little other income, that wasn't good news. I'm cleaning out the last of my retirement account to survive but what does a person do who doesn't have those resources?

@becky39, I wish I could give you n answer. Did you talk to the social worker? He might have some ideas.

6 months is normal waiting period from start of disability (not application date). I think it might be based on most states having 6 months short term state disability.
