| The following information about Social Security Disability and ssi benefits should assist you in learning more about how the disability process works and specifically relates to the issue of "appeal deadlines as they relate to the trial work period" |
|
What if a denial (on a reconsideration) is received during a "Trial Working Period", is the time limit to appeal still 60 days? (did not appeal within the sixty days because I was in the midst of the 9-month trial period) Trial work periods apply to cases in which disability claimants have been approved for benefits and are currently in pay status. However, regarding the time alloted to submit an appeal, the deadline is always 60 days from the date of the denial (plus, typically, an extra five days for mail time, a fact that most disability applicants seem to be unaware of). The 60 day deadline applies to all denials regardless of the level at which they occur (e.g., a denial of an initial claim, a reconsideration, and including denials at the ALJ hearing level and at the Appeals Council level).
