Does SSDI ever backdate due to IU reciept? Still researching how this could be.

Thank you
Cg'up2009!

No, I don't think SSDI back dates to anything except from the time you claim it. Maybe IU could be backdated to the time you got SSDI if the VA knew about it. For SSDI you have to be disabled 6 months before you can claim it. If you were disabled for ten years I still think it is still 6 months from the time you claim it. I don't think you can get an EED for SSDI.

Yes & no.

pr

Standard SSDi approval throughthe system only dates to the filed date.
On the other Hand, an ALJ can decide a disaility date well before an award and yes the judge can determine an IU claim from the VA as an effective date.
