Ways to Check Your SSDI Claim Status

1. Online Through Your My Social Security Account

The fastest way is to log in to your My Social Security account on the SSA website. Once logged in, you can:

• View your application status
• See if additional documents are needed
• Track progress at every stage (initial review, reconsideration, hearing, etc.)

This option is available 24/7 and gives you the most up-to-date information.

2. By Phone

You can call the SSA’s toll-free number at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY: 1-800-325-0778). Representatives are available Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. They can confirm whether your application is still under review or if a decision has been made.

3. Through Your Local New Hampshire SSA Office

If you prefer in-person updates, you can contact or visit your nearest Social Security field office in New Hampshire. Speaking directly with a representative may also help if you have specific questions about paperwork or deadlines.

4. With Help from Your Attorney or Representative

If you are working with a disability attorney or advocate, they can check your claim status on your behalf and keep track of any notices, deadlines, or additional requirements.

Why Checking Your SSDI Status Matters

• Prevents delays – You can quickly respond if the SSA requests more documents.
• Provides peace of mind – Knowing where your claim stands helps reduce uncertainty.
• Keeps you on track – You won’t miss appeal deadlines if your claim is denied.
