  • If you ask for both a reconsideration and a hearing, we will process the hearing first, even if you made the reconsideration request first. When we make our decisions, we will send you letters explaining our decisions on both the reconsideration and the hearing.
  • ALS125
  • After we send your case for a hearing, an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) will mail you a letter at least 20 days before the hearing to tell you its date, time and place. The letter will explain the law in your case and tell you what has to be decided. Since the ALJ will review all the facts in your case, it is important that you give us any new facts as soon as you can.
  • The hearing is your chance to tell the ALJ why you disagree with the decisions in your case. You can give the ALJ new evidence and bring people to testify for you. The ALJ also can require people to bring important papers to your hearing and give facts about your case. You can question these people at your hearing.
  • ALSR01 Hearings Level Decision by Someone Other Than an ALJ
  • We previously informed you of your appeal rights concerning the administrative law judge's (ALJ) decision. We also informed you of what you must do to have that decision reviewed.
  • If you believe that we decided any other part of  (1)  case incorrectly, you may request reconsideration on that part of  (2)  case. We will review  (3)  case and look at any new facts you have. A person who did not make the first decision will decide  (4)  case. We will review the parts of the decision that you think are wrong and correct any mistakes. We may also review the parts of our decision that you think are right. We will make a decision that may or may not be in  (5)  favor.
  • You have 60 days to ask for an appeal.
  • The 60 days start the day after you receive this letter. We assume you received this letter 5 days after the date on it unless you show us that you did not receive it within the 5-day period.
  • You must have a good reason if you wait more than 60 days to ask for an appeal.
  • You can file an appeal with any Social Security office. You must ask for an appeal in writing. Please use our “Request for Reconsideration” form, SSA-561-U2.

  • ERN001 Reporting Your Earnings
  • Because your earnings may affect your Social Security benefits, we need to know how much you earn during the year. Usually, we get that information from:
  • the earnings your employer reports on your W-2; and
  • your self-employment earnings reported on your income tax return.
  • In previous years, Social Security beneficiaries were required to file a separate report with us. Now, you need to report your earnings to us after the end of the year only if:
  • You are eligible for the monthly earnings test and you earned less than the monthly exempt amount (in that case, you need to tell us so we can pay benefits for that month);
  • Some or all of the earnings shown on your W-2 were not earned in the year reported;
  • You earned wages above the exempt amount and you also had a net loss in self-employment;
  • Your W-2 shows employer-reported wages that you will include on a self-employment tax return (e.g., ministers);
  • You filed a self-employment tax return but you did not perform any services in your business;
  • You are a farmer and you get federal agricultural program payments or you have income from carry-over crops;
  • We withheld some benefits but you had no earnings for the year, (e.g., no wages reported, no self-employment income).
  • About mid-year, we probably will send you a message asking you to estimate your current and next year's earnings. Your estimates will help us avoid paying you too much or too little in benefits.
