|

The process is flawed. The reasonable amount of time involved is beyond unreasonable.
|
||
And the ALJs is allowed to humiliate and degrade and deny us due process and to devalue the doctors assessments and diagnosis. Since when is a lawyer allowed to overrule a doctors findings as being "not petsuasive". I weigh 110 pounds and the ALJ s stated that I can lift fifty pounds with frequency. You lift half your bodyweight. Proposterous. I have diminished heart and lung responses. The records are clear... I can't work anymore....two states say I'm disabled....the SSA says my doctors assessments are ... not persuasive.
|
||
I PAID MY TAXES....PLAYED THIER GAME...take your dollars and bury them in a coffeecan ....or self invest... that's what I learned by playing by the rules....denied after three years of beauracratic nightmare and bad faith dealings. For shame ... ! I'm advanced age 59 .... there's no way of knowing how much has been taken from me in taxes....and for the bums rush....for shame.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[My husband paid his ex-wife weekly payments to help support their children. He is now disabled and living off of his social security payments and SSI is taking 1/3 of his check to repay child support that they claim he never provided. We now live on my SSI and a portion of his SSI payments. We are now scrimping to live. He is now 75 years old and his children are in their late 40's and help us with our utilities, because we are not able to maintain them by ourselves. What can we do to have the child support relieve us of this burden?]]></description>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Hi, Robin. We are sorry to hear about your husband's condition. Social Security pays disability benefits to people if they have a medical condition that has prevented them from working or is expected to prevent them from working for at least 12 months. We use the same <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/disability/qualify.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">five-step process</a> to make a decision on each application.  You may also find our <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/disability/professionals/bluebook/listing-impairments.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">listing of impairments</a> useful. </span></p>
|
||
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">If</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: #2f2f2f;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>he disagrees with the decision, he can <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/disability/appeal.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">file an appeal.</a> There are four levels in the appeals process. A reconsideration is the first level. Typically, the length of time it takes to receive a decision on a reconsideration is about 60 days but the amount of time could vary from case-to-case. We reevaluate all evidence, plus any additional evidence submitted and make a new decision. If he disagrees with the reconsidered decision, he can choose to go to the next level of the appeals process. We hope this helps. </span></p>]]></description>
