Can you get a disability decision in under a month ?Some Social Security disability applicants with terminal illnesses have been able to receive their disability decisions in less than a month. When an applicant has a terminal condition, their claim will be flagged to expedite processing. Often if a claims representative flags an applicants claim due to terminal illness, the representative will contact the applicant’s treating physicians to obtain medical information to help expedite the disability claim. If the claims representative does not get the medical information, when the claim is received at the state disability agency the dsability examiner will try to get the medical information to them. Usually physicians will gladly provide the needed information via fax. Other than a terminal situation, there are very few disability decisions made in less than a month.
