Colorado Social Security Disability Benefits Law: What if the Judge Wants Me to Change When My Disability Began?

  • Nate Craig · 1 year ago
    Thanks for reading my blog. I have been in and out of the office so much the last month with a sick wife. She is doing great and is back to normal. I will try to get on and post some more now that my life has returned to normal.

    I had a hearing with my lawyer and ALJ a week and a half ago.The ALj asked the expert Dr. if I meet ss guidlines and he said yes and gave him the aod I had put down.The ALJ then had my lawyer take me out and tell me he would approve my case if my aod was ammended.My Lawyer said to take the offer,we were rushed so I agreed.Basically, change the date and your appoved.Does that mean Full Approval or partial approval? I cant seem to get a straight answer from my lawer.He said congrats and it loks good and your over the biggest hurrdle.I'm still totally confused.It sound like he moved it from x/06 to x/07 1 yr.ahead.

    If you don't know what your lawyer did, keep asking until you get a straight answer.

    While I can't say what will happen in your case, I have often seen that when the AOD is amended and the case is approved, the decision is "fully favorable" instead of "partially favorable," because all the issue have been resolved.

    See my article on partially favorable decisions: http://www.socialsecurityinsider.com/2008/06/i-...
