Denied SSI, Next Steps

Question: I was denied SSI, what's next?

Answer: We appeal.

If you are denied Social Security Disability Benefits the next step is to file a Request for Reconsideration.

This step must be filed within 60 days of the denial of your application. This is a mandatory step, but don’t get your hopes up…the same agency that denied the application reviews it again at this stage. Unless they are willing to admit their own decision was wrong, you'll probably get denied again. If that occurs...

... you guessed it--we appeal again! At this point your case leaves the state system. Click to find a lawyer that can handle your ODAR disability case.
