How do you find out if a Social Security disability claim has been approved or even denied ?Social Security will send you a letter to let you know the decision on your disability claim. You should make sure that Social Security has the correct mailing address for you if you have moved since filing your disability claim. It is your responsibility to notify Social Security of any address changes. Even if you have not moved since you filed your disability application, remember Social Security is depending upon the mail system and mail does get lost. If you have not received a letter from Social Security indicating the status of your claim within ninety days, you should probably contact Social Security to check on the status of your claim. Why is any of this important? If you do not receive your denial letter, you will not know to appeal your disability claim. Remember, you have sixty-five days from the date of your last denial (sixty day appeal period with five days for mailing) in which to appeal your disability claim. You will not be able to appeal your disability claim if you are not aware that your Social Security disability claim has been denied.
