Is There any Option Other Than Appealing a Denied Application?
If you’ve been denied disability benefits, then you have to make a quick decision about how to proceed. The Social Security Administration (SSA) only gives you a few days to decide if you’re going to appeal, and failing to respond in time will get your claim permanently dismissed.
Disability benefits from the SSA offer income you can count on for paying bills, covering medical costs, and dealing with everyday living expenses. Filing an appeal is only one option for what to do if you’ve been denied though.
