How Long Does Disability Reconsideration Take?

Disability reconsideration often takes several months, depending on DDS workload and whether more medical evidence or a consultative exam is needed.

What slows reconsideration

Incomplete records, new conditions, and exam scheduling.

While you wait

Continue treatment and send new evidence when it becomes available.

If denied again

You may generally request a hearing. Note the new deadline on the reconsideration denial.
