How long does it take to get a decision?

Posted on February 20, 2016 by Ken LaVan

A: Generally it takes 3 to 6 months to receive a decision. If you are not satisfied with the SSA’s decision, you may appeal your decision. If you are denied at the initial application you can appeal your decision by filing a request for Reconsideration. If your Reconsideration is denied, you will need to request a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). It can take between 6 months and 2 years to have an ALJ assigned to your claim.

 

Note: It is important that you continue to appeal your denials. Many people start a new application rather than appealing the denial.
