What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Alright, I had my Hearing with the ALJ on the 2nd of March 2011. I won! Now, my lawyer states that I should take the letter they sent me to the SSI/SSD office closest to me. He seems to think that if I do that then it would "speed up" my processing. I see in the letter that they say it will take up to 60 days to get back to me? And that there will be more questions asked of me by the SSI/SSD Office such as where did I live at the time of application and where I currently live and with whom and for how long. Is this correct? Is that what I should be expecting? And should I take the letter to the SSD/SSI Office? What if I am on vacation in Florida when the letter gets to my home in Michigan? Can I take it to a SSD/SSI Office in Florida or will it transfer my case down here and start the process all over again, or at least delay it more???
I am so confused! Many people say "Oh, the hardest part is over. Now just sit back ans relax" but I cannot because of all the nagging questions. Sometimes it seems like there's more worry now than before!
