There are 3 Kinds of Recon

Case review, informal conference, and formal hearing. Choose the one that works best for your situation. Check the one you choose on the form.

To appeal denial of an application for disability benefits, a case review is your only choice. In a case review, you can add more evidence and facts to your file. You won’t meet with the person who reviews your file.

To appeal overpayments, reductions, or termination of your benefits due to non-medical reasons, you can choose a formal or informal conference. A non-medical reason is something like having too much income or resources, having your name on a bank account that is not yours, or being told you got benefits you shouldn’t have gotten. You get to meet with the person who decides your appeal. The meeting is usually at the Social Security office.

To appeal a decision to cut off your benefits (called a “cessation” of your disability), you have a right to an in-person hearing. You get to meet with a hearing officer who reviews your file. This meeting is fairly informal and usually takes place at the state Disability Determination Services (DDS) office.

You can present witnesses. This is not your last chance at a hearing. If you lose the informal hearing at DDS, you have a right to a more formal hearing with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) later. You need to appeal the decision from the DDS hearing within 10 days to keep your benefits going while you wait for an ALJ hearing to be scheduled.

Be ready for your meeting. Write out a statement of the facts, including any new evidence. Tell Social Security about any new doctors, hospital stays, or medical treatments. If you are dealing with a non-medical issue, you should gather bank statements, deeds, vehicle titles, and any other important information. You have a right to look at your file before the meeting.
