Is There Ever a Good Cause for Late Appeals?

  • Published: July 22, 2013

If you have missed a deadline to submit an appeal, an Ocala Social Security disability appeal law firm attorney can explain to you what the Social Security Administration deems as acceptable reasons for late appeals. Using the wrong reason could cost you your claim.

An Ocala Social Security Disability Appeal Law Group Attorney Discusses Good Cause

Before you miss an appeal, be sure to talk to an Ocala Social Security disability appeal law firm lawyer about your disability case. However, following are a few examples of valid reasons for missing appeal deadlines:

  • You were very sick and unable to contact the SSA or your Ocala Social Security disability appeal law group attorney face to face, by phone, by mail, or through a friend, relative, or other third party.
  • Someone in your immediate family passed away or was extremely ill.
  • An accident, such as a fire or flood, damaged or destroyed the records you needed in order to make your case to the SSA.

Please note that the reasons above are set by the SSA, and there is nothing your Ocala Social Security disability appeal law firm attorney can do to change them.
