How often will I be reviewed for continued eligibility for SSDI in Connecticut? In Connecticut, once you start receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits, you will undergo periodic reviews called Continuing Disability Reviews (CDRs). These reviews are designed to determine if you still meet the SSA’s criteria for disability. Typically, CDR frequency depends on the expected chance of medical improvement. Reviews could occur as often as every 6 months or up to every 7 years.

Find out if you qualify for SSDI benefits. Pre-qualify in 60 seconds for up to $4,018 per month and 12 months back pay.

Please answer a few questions to help us determine your eligibility.

Frequent Review Periods

The SSA may schedule reviews as often as:

  • Every 6 to 18 months if your condition is expected to improve.
  • More frequent checks for temporary or fluctuating disabilities.
Less Frequent Reviews

If improvement is unlikely or your condition is severe, reviews might happen:

  • Every 3 to 7 years or longer.
  • Possibly no routine review if your disability is permanent and stable.
How Reviews Are Conducted

During your review, the SSA will:

  • Request medical records and updated health information.
  • Consider opinions from your doctors and specialists.
  • Evaluate whether your disability still limits your ability to work.
Possible Outcomes

Following the review:

  • Your benefits could be continued if disability persists.
  • The SSA may stop benefits if improvement is found.
  • You will be notified of decisions and can appeal if necessary.
Importance of Staying Compliant

To avoid interruptions:

  • Respond promptly to SSA requests.
  • Submit complete and current medical documents.
  • Attend all scheduled medical exams or evaluations.
