In general, most conventional mortgages require 10 to 25 percent of the purchase price as a down payment. There are exceptions, however, that may decrease down payments to around 3 percent for first-time home buyers, or increase them to 30 to 35 percent for credit-challenged borrowers.
Answer: The evaluation of an appeal in a Social Security disability claim can take anywhere from a few months to two years. It really depends on several factors: from the jurisdiction where you live to which individual Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) hears your case.
Each level of the process takes time and there is no guarantee that you will be approved on your first claim. Average decision waits at each level. For instance, it takes anywhere from thirty to ninety days to get a decision on your initial disability claim. If your initial disability application is denied, you must appeal your denial by filing a request for reconsideration appeal. Your reconsideration appeal takes about sixty days to receive a decision.
