[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 550012, member: 7083"] It is interesting that SSI is going back a full year since he didn't apply that long ago. I was told that SSI will not go beyond the application date. Even though my SSDI found me disabled in 2007 (this determination was made in 2011), SSI started paying based on my application date of September, 2009. I got 2 larger payments, 2 months apart from SSI, plus the monthly SSI amount starting in October, 2011. Then when SSDI finally started paying in January, 2012, SSI stopped and SSDI deducted the difference between what they pay and what SSI had already paid when I got my retro pay in February, 2012. Confusing, but it's just math. If he's supposed to get $760 a month from SSDI, calculate $760 times however many months and you'll be able to roughly determine how much money he'll get in backpay. Keep in mind that SSDI doesn't pay for 5 or 6 months after the date the person was found to be disabled. So, if Travis was found to be disabled a year ago, SSDI won't pay for the first 5 months of that. [/QUOTE]
