Administrative Law Judge
Next » « Previous3/6
Before the hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge, you will have a chance to give Social Security any additional evidence, clarification or information you may have about your claim. You and your representative, if you have one, may go to the hearing and explain your case in person. You may look at the information in your file and give new information. It is preferable to give new information.
A hearing is started by using forms: HA 501-U5, SSA 3441 and SSA 827. HA 501 is available at www.ssa.gov/online/ha-501.html . Both forms 3441 and SSA 827 are available at the same site in the "claims supporting forms" section.
At the hearing, the Administrative Law Judge will question you and any witnesses you bring. Other witnesses, such as medical or vocational experts, may also give information at the hearing. You or your representative also may question the witnesses.
It is usually to your advantage to attend the hearing. If you cannot attend the hearing, tell Social Security why as soon as you can. If you have a good reason, Social Security will try to change the time or place of the hearing to fit your needs.
When the Administrative Law Judge makes a decision, you will be sent a letter and a copy of the decision.
