How long does it take to get Social Security benefits?There is no clear-cut answer to this question, because each person’s disability claim has it own unique set of medical facts. Some individuals with severe medical and/or medical conditions may be allowed at the initial or reconsideration levels. Yet, other individuals may have to pursue their Social Security claims to a hearing before an administrative law judge. That being said, your initial disability claim usually takes about 100 days to process, reconsiderations usually take an additional 30 –60 days, and if you have to have an administrative law judge hearing, it take many more months. So as you can see, the disability process may be a lengthy process, and you may not get Social Security benefits the first time you go through the process.
