Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to appeal a denial in Massachusetts?
You have 60 days from the date of the denial letter to file an appeal with the Social Security Administration. This deadline is strict, so contact a lawyer promptly to avoid losing your right to appeal.
What is the average wait time for a disability hearing in Somerset?
Hearings for Somerset residents are typically held at the Fall River hearing office. The average wait time for a hearing decision in Massachusetts is 12 to 18 months from the date of your request.
Can I work part time while my disability claim is pending?
Yes, but you must earn less than the Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) limit, which is $1,550 per month in 2024 for non-blind individuals. Earning above this amount may disqualify you from benefits.
