This information may help claimants with representation, as well as claimants who are not represented by an attorney or non attorney representative. Understanding how the Social Security Disability system works can make the difference between winning or not winning the continuing disability benefits and backpay to which a person is entitled. |

Dear sir. My case is up for review. I have been on disability for about 6 years. If i get denied future benefits, will I still get my monthly check while i appeal? Please let me know. Even if, ultimately, during the appeal process you get denied for future benefits, you can elect to receive continuing benefits while your case is under appeal. Simply contact your local social security office within ten days of the date of your cessation notice and make a request for a continuation of benefits. Typically, your benefits can be continued up until the time your case is heard by an administrative law judge at a disability hearing. But...you should keep in mind the fact that if your social security disability or ssi case is eventually lost you may be in the position of having to repay the social security administration for these payment months. However, in such instances, an individual may still file a request for waiver of overpayment. Disability Advocates Help with Claims Free Case Evaluation |
