I receive SSD,it took me two years to finally be approved.You can count on them denying your claim at least once.Mine was denied twice,then I had to get a lawyer and go to court.I have known some people who it has taken even longer to receive benefits than two years.If you do not have a legitimate disability,you will never get approved.You also have to be out of work because of your disability to even apply.Best advice is to get a lawyer before you even apply the first time,they will tell you if you even have a case worth fighting for.

DON'T do it yourself. Contact an attorney who specializes in this area. Most of the time, the attorney will not charge you if benefits are not awarded, and will take a cut of the back award of benefits if you're successful. You may be liable for fees (like filing fees, and appeal fees if the Administration denies your claim) but believe me, it's worth it. Your attorney is known in the system, will help you if you need a hearing, and, most importantly may help you file an appeal in the district court if you lose (where you most need an attorney).

it depends what your disability is. It will possibly be a long fight. Usually they deny you first but, you have to stick with it and keep appealing it. Once you win you get paid all the way back to the time you filed.

Not if you're really totally disabled and you have a doctor who understands what the medical record needs to show.
If you're not and just want to avoid work, have fun!
