What Is Reconsideration?

What is a Social Security disability
Reconsideration?

Columbia Tennessee disability lawyer Social Security disability claimants whose initial applications for disability are denied have 60 days from receipt of denial to file an appeal, and that first appeal is called a Request for Reconsideration.

Reconsideration takes on average about 90 days, and only 15% of reconsideration appeals are granted. However, reconsideration is a necessary step before the hearing level, where 55% of appeals are granted.

At reconsideration a different team of disability examiners will evaluate your claim.
