YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL
If you think we are wrong, you have the right to appeal. If you appeal, we will review
our decision. If we made a mistake, we will fix it. If you have any questions, get
in touch with us. Please bring this notice with you if you come to a Social Security
office.
You have 60 DAYS TO APPEAL after you get this notice. If you wait more than 60 days,
you must have a good excuse.
HOW TO APPEAL
There are two different kinds of appeals. You can pick the one you want unless you
do not agree with what we decided about your medical condition. Then, the only appeal
you can have is a case review. The people in our offices can explain how these appeals
work. You can have a lawyer, friend, or someone else help you with your appeal.
Here are the two kinds of appeals:
-
1.
CASE REVIEW
You can give us more facts to add to your file. Then, we will decide your case again.
You will not meet with the person who will decide your case. This is the only kind
of appeal you can have if you do not agree with what we decided about your medical
condition.
-
2.
INFORMAL CONFERENCE
You will meet with the person who will decide your case. You can tell that person
why you think you are right. You can also give us more facts to help prove you are
right. You can bring other people to help explain your case. You can pick this kind
of appeal unless you do not agree with what we decided about your medical condition.
REMEMBER, YOU PICK THE KIND OF APPEAL YOU WANT. BUT, IF YOU APPEAR IN PERSON, IT MAY
HELP US TO DECIDE YOUR CASE.
TO APPEAL, YOU MUST MAKE A REQUEST IN WRITING. Be sure to tell us your name, social
security number, and why you think we are wrong. Also tell us what kind of appeal
you want-CASE REVIEW OR INFORMAL CONFERENCE. If you cannot write to us, call our office
or come in and someone will help you.
There are groups that can help you with your appeal. Some groups may be able to give
you the name of a lawyer who will help you for free. Let us know if you want the names
of these groups.
You have other rights because you are eligible under the supplemental security income
program. There are also some things you must do. The enclosed booklet tells you what
you should know. Please read this booklet and keep it in case you have questions later.
