Hi NOS455,

The appeals process, after initial denial, you had an ALJ hearing and were denied? Then appealed to the appeals council and then sent it back to the ALJ level for another hearing?

From what I have read and heard, almost nothing gets approved at the appeals council level. It is either denied there and then you can move to Federal court OR they send you back to ALJ level.

Sounds like you have hope since they did NOT deny you and have returned you to another ALJ hearing. I am wishing you the best. How long will you have to wait for your new hearing? Any idea? Are you guarenteed a different ALJ?

Please keep us posted. Good luck to you.
