[Only include those that apply]

DO YOU DISAGREE WITH THE DETERMINATION?

You or your representative may ask us to review the determination on the fee agreement. If you decide to ask us for a review, write us within 15 days from the day you get this order. Tell us that you disagree and give your reasons. Send your request to this address:

[If Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) disapproved fee agreement:

Name and address of Regional Chief ALJ in region where case was heard.

If Administrative Appeals Judge disapproved fee agreement:

Social Security Administration
Office of Appellate Operations
Attn: Attorney Fee Branch

Your representative also has 15 days to write us if the representative does not agree with the determination on the fee.

You should include the social security number(s) shown on this order on any papers that you send us.

AUTHORIZING A REPRESENTATIVE'S FEE UNDER THE FEE PETITION PROCESS

If neither you nor your representative requests review, your representative must file a fee petition if the representative wants to charge and collect a fee. I have enclosed with the representative's copy of this order a Form SSA-1560 (Petition to Obtain Approval of a Fee for Representing a Claimant before the Social Security Administration) your representative may use for this purpose.
