It’s important not to delay filing an appeal if you have been denied Social Security Disability Benefits. You have sixty days from the time you received your denial to file an appeal. If you do not file an appeal, within that time period, you will have to start all over again. And that can be really frustrating and a time waster. If you file your appeal in a timely manner, you will have someone else looking at your medical records and doing a separate and distinct disability determination.
