Waiver of Right to Appear--Disability Hearing

Claimants for Social Security disability payments or their representatives can use Form SSA-773-U4 to waive their right to appear at a disability hearing. The disability hearing officer uses the signed form as a basis for not holding a hearing, and for preparing a written decision on the claimant’s request for disability payments based solely on the evidence of record. The respondents are disability claimants for Social Security benefits or SSI payments, or their representatives, who wish to waive their right to appear at a disability hearing.
