QUESTION
SSDI under appeal, new medical issues. What to do?
Asked on Feb 04th, 2020 on Social Security Disability - Wisconsin
More details to this question:
I had a court date and had my SSDI denied. And appeal has been submitted and now, I have been diagnosed with more, new medical issues. Do I drop the appeal and try to start over? I don't have 12-36 months to wait, plus my new medical issues should qualify me for SSDI. What about a QDD?

I would not withdraw the appeal until you clarify at what level yo uare appealing. Have you gone before an Adminsitrative Law Judge?

It is not clear whether you applied for reconsideration or for redetermination or took an appeal to an administrative law judge or to the counsel or to a district court. The level you are at determines whether new information can be submitted. You might want to contact a disabilities lawyer using the Find a Lawyer function on the website of the National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives.
