How often will I be reviewed for continued eligibility for SSDI in Texas? In Texas, if you receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits, you will be reviewed periodically to ensure you still qualify. These reviews, known as Continuing Disability Reviews (CDRs), generally occur every few years depending on your medical condition. Some individuals may be reviewed more often if their condition is expected to improve, while others may have less frequent reviews. It’s important to respond to these reviews promptly to avoid interruptions in your benefits.

Find out if you qualify for SSDI benefits. Pre-qualify in 60 seconds for up to $4,018 per month and 12 months back pay.

Please answer a few questions to help us determine your eligibility.


Frequency of SSDI Reviews in Texas

Continuing Disability Reviews typically happen:

  • Every 3 to 7 years depending on the severity of your disability.
  • More frequent reviews if improvement in your condition is expected.
  • Less frequent or no reviews if your condition is considered permanent and unlikely to improve.
Types of Reviews Conducted

The reviews may entail:

  • Medical evidence evaluation to confirm your disability status.
  • Request for updated medical records from your healthcare providers.
  • Potential medical exams scheduled by the SSA to assess current condition.
Notification Process

During the review:

  • You will receive written notice from the SSA about the review.
  • Deadlines for response and submitting medical documents will be included.
  • Failure to respond may result in termination of benefits.
Factors Affecting Review Timing

Several elements influence timing:

  • Your medical improvement potential as assessed by SSA guidelines.
  • Type of disability and its expected duration.
