How much will a federal appeal cost?


No generally, filing a federal appeal will not cost you anything. It didn't cost anything when you filed your original disability application. The Federal Court is a little bit different though. The federal court so not our office, and not Social Security, will request a filing fee.


You can get that filing fee waived if the court finds that you have limited income, we'll work with you to figure out your resources and your income to determine if the court could waive that filing fee. If the court waives it, there's nothing that you owe for the filing fee.
