Guest guest Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I think with everyone it is different but if I were you I would go to your local Soc.Sec office and talk to someone face to face.The good thing is that the longer you wait the bigger the check will be. Good luck, Don. > > > > > > I have just a quick question. How long after you receive approval > for > > social security benifits does it take to get your first check and > back > > pay.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Damn...I can't remember. It wasn't too long..maybe about a month. The first thing I did was go into a social security office and set up automatic deposit. I've never gotten a physical check by doing that..not even the first one. It's much faster that way. *¬*.¸¸.·´¨`»*«´¨`·.¸¸.*¬* On the internet, no one knows you're a cat. ~*~StrykerMom~*~ *¬*.¸¸.·´¨`»*«´¨`·.¸¸.*¬* --- Rita wrote: > I have just a quick question.

Good luck, Don. ********************************************************************** True, but remember if you are on any assistance while waiting, they will take the amount out of your check and send you whats left over. When I got my SSI, I had been on welfare for a year. The award was for over 10,000.00 but because of being on welfare, I only got 6,000. Welfare got back what they had given me while I was waiting. From the day you applied for SSI/ SSDI, is when it strarts. in WA ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
