Vocational Experts at disability hearings

[Jacfl]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

I had my disability hearing today, and the vocational expert said that I could do 3 other jobs. But when the judge asked if I would be able to do these jobs if I had 2 absences a month due to medical issues, would I still be able to do them, she said no. She also asked would I still be able to do them if I had to have 2 unscheduled breaks a day for bathroom purposes, she also said no. I have Chron's disease and need to use bathroom frequently. Does this mean I could win my case?

Whe you receive your notice ,if not favorable ,it should explain the process.

Apparently, the OP had a hearing in front of the ALJ and is awaiting the decision. If it is unfavorable, the OP has the option of going to the SS Appeals Council to address the issue. The Council may agree with the judge's decision and the last option is to file suit in Federal Court.
