I hope your paperwork for SSDI was started prior to Jan 1, 2003, love... anything after that is no longer eligable for back monies, courtesy of the arsemunches in congress that decided they wanted to vote themselves another huge pay increase.
Also... for the payout on SSDI... figure the monthly figure is going to be 1/4 -> 3/8 of your prior income; I went from a 42k/year job to a just under 11k SSDI check. It may be that it's a flat rate that has nothing to do with income; I honestly don't have that information where I can get to it. I just knot that the loss of most of my income was crippling; the long term result is that we're losing the house.
