FILING RECONSIDERATION AND 501 APPEALS

If an initial application is denied you will have to file a Request for Reconsideration or a 501 Request for Hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) depending on which state you live in. Claimants have 60 days from the date of their denial to file either a Request for Reconsideration or a 501 Request for Hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ).
