Social Security Has Reduced the Disability Backlog - Newsweek
Social Security has been reducing the backlog of disability claims. The average wait time for a hearing is now the lowest it has been in the past 20 years! The average wait time has dropped to 265 days; it used to be almost two years or longer!
SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano said in a statement provided to Newsweek: “For too long, Americans with disabilities have endured lengthy delays for a decision on the support they desperately need.
