Online it states I'm approved for social security disability. I received a letter stating I was approved for the medical but they have not decided whether I qualify under the non medical rules.
Online it shows I have 2 claims. One for SSDI and one for SSI (Disability). I did not apply for SSI disability but this is what it says under that link:

What does this mean and now that the medical has been approved how long will it take for the non medical. I can view my work history so I know I have enough work history. Thank you in advance

Hi Connie,
This means your case is still going through the different stages of the review process. Once a decision has been made, you'll receive a letter in the mail. Best of luck!

Hi Erica,
This just means that they are still in the process of making a decision on your case.
A medical decision has been made and we are working to process your benefit application. A Social Security Representative may contact you directly if we need any additional documents or information. If a medical decision has been made why are they still reviewing it ?

Hi Athena,
There are two parts to qualifying. The medical and the technical qualifications that look at your work history. If the medical decision has been made, It is likely that they are just reviewing the technical part.
What does the technical part mean
In reply to What does the technical part by Branden (not verified)
Hi Branden,
To qualify for disability benefits, there is some specific criteria that you have to meet on top of the medical. They will be taking a look at the applicants work history to see if they have received enough credits to qualify. To qualify for SSDI you have to "pay into" the system via income taxes. You can earn up to four credits a year and the amount you need to qualify is based on your age.
What does it mean a medical decision has been made and we are working to process your application and a hearing has been scheduled.

Hi Laura,
Sometimes the SSA will make a decision without you even having to see one of their doctors. I would continue to follow up and promptly send any information they ask for to try to speed up the process. Best of luck!
Hi,
I received a letter from ALJ stating fully favorable for ssdi. Still waiting on decision for ssi. But when I go online it states that my case was sent to the appeals council for review. How much longer til I start getting payments and my backpay?
