After many anxious months, I finally received my first denial for SSDI.
I'm quite concerned as to whether I could ever be approved under SSA rules.
The letter stated in what I assume was boiler plate language, that although I cannot perform any of my past work in the last 15 years there are other jobs I should be able to perform.
I would assume that because I have a college education and worked the past 15 years as a certified public accountant, I lost on the grid rules at step 5. (I obviously did not make the MS listing)
I'm waiting for the cd from SSA, so I can read the determination information from DDS before preparing my reconsideration . However - I'm starting to wonder based on my education and work experience if I'd ever be approved. I'm 55 - so I thought that might be a help.
Thing is - the symptoms that caused me to give up a great job, are the same symptoms that would prevent me from being able to go to any other job.
And if my past 15 years were sedentary work and they say I can't do that work - how can they say I can do other work? Can they keep me in the sedentary category if they've already determined I can't do my past work which was sedentary? - less than sedentary? Go sit in a corner? I don't get it.
Looking for anyone with some advice 😃 Thanks
