[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 172621, member: 1697"] Nah, the preg thing ONLY covers the preg mommy and then the new baby- noone else. I think it is to try to help "ensure" healthy newborns? (HA! yeah, OK but then WHY are they not SEEING the preg mommmies?) I agree, go ahead and apply- worst that can happen is they say "no" and then you can still appeal? THey might not know what guardian ad litem is.....they know only their dept, their info-----depending on what position the person you talked to holds, might ONLY know how to set you an appointment to talk to one of the people you meet up with.....and even the person you do meet up with face to face might only know what is on their application form, and maybe nothing more...depends how long they have worked there and all kinds of other things. And I am fairly sure the person you meet face to face is not the person who makes the determination, they are just the person who tells you what to bring in for documentation..... It actually took like 3 months to hear determination for difficult children soc sec status....and then another month after she was granted it to GET it..and they paid retroactive to the date we filed. It took like 3 months to get her Medicaide rolling.....and they never told us if she did get it, it just one day arrived. PCs Medicaide came MUCH faster----butthey told us when we applied she WOULD get it, I think due to the preg? Her "card" arrived in 20 days. and was backdated on it to the date we applied. When dealing with gov agencies, who knows what they think ? My husband military bens took 10 YEARS of us actively pursuing his claim.....and then yes, it was also retro.....actually it came in in "peices" first 10% awarded with an appeal, then 30% awarded and retro back to make up for the time when they only gave him 10% and so on......appeals every step of the way.....10 years from first filing to his 100%----and gypped out of 5 years before that when he was told orally not to apply for his vets bens- even tho he was already disabled from the same diagnosis but only got soc sec ..... gov agencies live in their own world.
