Hi insTeacher. I was reading your answers for some SSDI and

My husband has worked and paid into social security all his life, before he became ill, he worked almost 20 years in a row. Only changed jobs once in that time. He was denied the first time, then he got a lawyer and on the appeal, after it went to the judge, he won. We have not recieved the letter or explanation of benefits yet, but I dont understand the process to get from SSDI to SSI.
