This has probably been asked before, under what circumstances does the appeals council make a favorable decision themselves rather than remand, what would be the parameters of the case?

It's at their discretion and this link states that the AC issues Fully Favorable decisions in only 3% of appeals. http://www.disabilitysecrets.com/appeals-council.html

When an applicant receives a remand it gives them another opportunity to prove that they qualify under SS's strict medical and legal requirements for disability benefits. You always seem to think that the SS employees are emotionally invested in the outcome of your case. I highly doubt your ALJ, let alone the vast majority of ALJs, get infuriated when the AC remands a case. They're simply following the law as they interpret it. |

Being assigned an ALJ with a low approval rating is not ideal, but if you are approved at some point, it will likely be from a ruling of an ALJ. |

I think that's possible if I move to another state, there are dozens of stories where others have been approved sooner than later by just moving. It's mind boggling that 4 out of 6 judges are in the high 20s in approvals. I always think, what if it were the other way, they approved 70% of their cases, red flags would be everywhere. Queens, New York wasn't this obvious.
