What Are the Social Security Disability Appeal Deadlines?

You only have sixty (60) calendar days from the exact date on an unfavorable decision to file an appeal.  In the State of Florida, if you are issued a Notice of Disapproved Claim on your Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Insurance claim or your Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claim, you must file a Request for Reconsideration to protect your appeal rights. There is a Social Security form for this appeal, Form SSA-561-U2.  If you are issued a Notice of Reconsideration on your claim(s), you must file a Request for Hearing By Administrative Law Judge, Social Security Form HA-501-U5.

When I was denied my second appeal for disability, I had to find an attorney to represent me. When I went online, I found dozens and dozens of attorneys that specialize in disability. So I read many reviews, and I selected Nick Ortiz. Selecting Nick Ortiz's firm was one of the best choices I have ever made. Nick Ortiz's law firm has an excellent staff. Sarah (one of the staff) has over 10 years of professional experience in the legal field, and she could answer my questions and put me at ease when I called. Tory, the paralegal assigned to my claim, has over 20 years experience. She was very empathetic to my situation and did a great job calming me down and gathering the records from the nine doctors I am seeing. Tory and Sarah were always accessible and patient no matter what questions I had. Nick is a no-nonsense man. My conversation with him put my mind at ease. They also have online courses called the Disability Academy that address everything you need to know before the hearing with the ALJ (the Administrative Law Judge). The veteran staff is there to answer all of your questions and treat you with compassion. I asked Nick what he thought my chances were, and he replied, "I have looked at your case, and I am in it to win." And win, he did. I received full disability. I would highly recommend Nick Ortiz to represent you! The firm provides everything to help you prepare for your hearing.
