is 3 months for disability decision a good sign
the average wait for a decision on an initial disability application is 3 to 4 months, and the wait for a decision on a reconsideration appeal(a first appeal to the disability determination service agency that must be denied before a claimant can request a hearing) usually takes several months as well.) human error (someone in the disability determination process drops the ball). In the case of the ALJ social security disability decision, it's also important to take in to account that, although it is the judge that decides the case, it is not the judge who actually writes the decision letter.
