When filling out a Medicaid application it is in the best interest of the individual to be able to provide as much information as possible in order to establish eligibility. By law, states have 45 days to process all Medicaid applications, and as much as 90 days for applications involving disabled individuals.
The period from when you submit your application to when you learn if youâre approved or denied varies. It can take the SSA about six weeks to process your application and start your benefits. It might take longer if you supply incorrect information or the SSA needs more information. The number of applications sent to the SSA for retirement benefits could also contribute to a longer processing time.
