Once the administrative law judge has made his or her decision, the decision is actually written by staff decision writers at the hearing office and then reviewed by the judge. When the judge is ready to issue the decision, your disability file may be sent to the Social Security office from where it originated.
Technically, yes, a favorable ALJ decision (one that grants benefits) after a disability hearing can be overturned by the Appeals Council. The Appeals Council can choose to review any ALJ decisions for review, and the Appeals Council can choose to grant benefits that an ALJ denied or deny benefits that an ALJ granted.
If a disability claimant is approved and receives a fully favorable or partially favorable decision from a judge following a hearing, the claimant will receive the disability award letter soon after (after the file is sent back to Social Security).
Sometimes (rarely) an ALJ will announce a favorable decision at the hearing. Usually, however, it takes 2-3 months to get a decision. Sometimes it can take six months or longer. (In our experience, the longer it takes for the ALJ to make a decision, the more likely it is that the decision will be unfavorable.)
An administrative law judge (ALJ) in the United States is a judge and trier of fact who both presides over trials and adjudicates claims or disputes (in other words, ALJ-controlled proceedings are bench trials) involving administrative law.
Unfortunately, Social Security disability claimants typically have to wait one to two months after approval before they will see their first Social Security Disability monthly payment. In most cases, it will take even longer for you to receive your back pay.
Following a disability Hearing, you will generally receive a written decision within 60 days. Once you have conducted your disability Hearing, your claim will remain at your local ODAR (Office of Disability Adjudication and Review) until the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) has made a decision.
