The CPD date is the date that the Disability Examiner (DE), Administrative Law Judge (ALJ), or Administrative Appeals Judge (AAJ) signed on the most recent favorable SSA-831, SSA-832/833, or decision. The CPD date is the reference point for the medical development of the electronic Continuing Disability Review (eCDR). Comparison Point Decision - DI 28010.105 provides an overview of the CPD date and instructions for identifying the correct CPD folder. A paper CPD folder will have the SSA-831, SSA-832/833, or decision in the file.

If the CPD folder is a Certified Electronic Folder (CEF), then the CPD date is found on the SSA-831/832/833 in eView. To locate the 831/832/833:

1. 1. 

   Enter the beneficiary Social Security Number in eView; and

2. 2. 

   Select the Case Documents tab; and

3. 3. 

   Select Payment Documents/Decisions (Yellow Front); and

4. 4. 

   Review all of the 831/832/833s in the folder to identify the correct CPD; and

5. 5. 

   Find the 831/832/833 with the most recent favorable medical decision. Box 30 of the 831 contains the examiner signature and Box 31 contains the CPD date. Box 25 of the 832/833 contains the examiner signature and Box 26 contains the CPD date.

The CPD folder contains the medical and vocational evidence from the most recent favorable medical decision finding that the individual was disabled or continued to be disabled. If this folder is paper, locate and send it to the Disability Determination Services (DDS) for CDR processing. It is essential that the paper CDP folder contain a FLAG so that subsequent paper folder handlers know that there is an electronic component to the office folder. Paper folders must follow the current eCDR during all steps of adjudication, review, and appeal.
