Important Forms

Hearing Level Documents

The hearing process begins after an applicant for benefits has been denied at the initial and (in most states) reconsideration levels. The next step in the appeals process is a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ).

You or your representative may request a hearing by an Administrative Law Judge. The ALJ will make an independent decision based on the evidence we have, including your testimony at the hearing.

Initial Claim Documents

Start your claim process with these forms.

Reconsideration Documents

When the federal government makes a decision on your claim, they send you a letter explaining their decision. If you do not agree with their decision, you can appeal—that is, ask them to look at your case again.
