Social Security Disability Request for Review of Hearing Decision
The Request for Review of Hearing Decision is the form filed when a claimant has been denied at the Hearing level.
If a claimant is denied at the Hearing level, the next appeal is to the Appeals Council. Once it is filed, it can take up to two years to receive a decision. Sometimes the claim is remanded back to the ALJ for a second look and another decision.
If the claim is denied there, the final appeal is to the Federal District Court. Your legal representative has more information about this level of the process.
