<p>If a person disagrees with a decision made on a claim for
Social Security benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
claim, there are several administrative appeal steps they may
follow.&nbsp;<a href="/pubs/10041.html">Appeals</a> must be
requested in writing, within specified time periods. All letters
sent to claimants contain the specific information needed to
appeal.</p>
<p>There are four basic appeal steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>After an initial decision, a person may request a reconsideration,
which is a reexamination of the record.&nbsp; A reconsideration
applies in all cases except for initial disability cases

<h3>Administrative Law Judge Hearing</h3>
<p>Before the hearing, a person, or his or her representative,
may review all the evidence in his or her own application file,
or may submit any new evidence you want the administrative law
judge to consider.</p>
<p>At the hearing, the judge explains the issues in your case,
may question you and any witnesses you bring to the hearing,
or may request that other witnesses (a doctor or a vocational
expert) come to the hearing. The hearing is recorded.</p>
<p>After the hearing, the judge issues a written decision after
studying all the evidence.</p>
<h3>Office of Hearings Operations</h3>
<p>In the New York region, there are currently 16 Offices of
Hearings Operations with a total staff of 565,
including the administrative law judges, staff attorneys, decision
writers, paralegal and clerical staff. Additionally, administrative
law judges may use video technology at other sites such as local
Social Security offices to conduct hearings if needed.</p>
