Social Security Disability Guide:
Reconsideration
If the claim has been disallowed after the initial consideration,
reconsideration must be requested within 60 days of the date the
disallowance was received. The reconsideration request is considered by
a different person than the one who made the initial decision.
Additional evidence can be filed with the request for reconsideration,
or even after the request for reconsideration is filed. In most cases
the submission of additional evidence at this stage is helpful.
If the reconsideration is denied, the claimant can file for a hearing
before an
Administrative Law
Judge within 60 days of the date when the
denial was received.
