All things social security disability
Your file should normally be reviewed a year after you are awarded benefits, then the third and seventh years after. Given the current backlog, however, reviews are not necessarily being conducted on that schedule. Because of that, you should be ready for a review at any time. Your file is reviewed periodically to assure that the most recent details about your condition are noted. The review will note changes in your condition that may or may not affect your eligibility for benefits.
