Update 2: I received my approval letter in the mail today. Yay!
So after starting this process last year and receiving two paper denials, I went to court today and was found to be disabled under 3 different sections of disability law. Now I have to wait 60 days and then I will finally start to receive my funds.
UPDATE
This is an awesome flow chart that can help peopl visualize how hard the process is.
