The length of time it takes to receive a decision on your disability claim is from 3 to 5 months. It can vary depending on several factors, but primarily on:
the nature of your disability;
how quickly we obtain medical evidence from your doctor or other medical source;
whether it is necessary to send you for a medical examination in order to obtain evidence to support your claim; and
If your claim is randomly selected for quality assurance review of the decision.
