iAppeals Screen Package

General Notes
The design goals of this release were:











Reduce sign-in/re-entry errors
Improve and streamline language throughout iAppeals application
Reduce number of pages presented in the iAppeals application (e.g., information may now be behind
“links” and not displayed on the page
Re-design the iAppeals and Disability Report landing pages in an effort to move to the similar look and
feel of our newer eService applications
Add a link to a checklist of information and documents the user may need before starting the application
Add a link for a new iAppeals introductory video
Add a link to the “Special Instructions for Blind Users” to the landing page
Modify the focus of the “Enter” button
Re-label and move the “Sign Off” button
Consider re-labeling the “Continue” button

Due to the extremely short timeframe for this project, the scope of the language changes was strictly limited to
expository verbiage. Throughout the entire application (covering the 501, 561, and 3441), no changes of any kind
were made to user input fields, to field labels, or to questions being presented to the users (in other words,
nothing within the alternating color bands depicting data requested from users).

Global Changes
While the scope of this release allows for only incremental changes, we are proposing some small changes to
bring iAppeals more closely into alignment with iClaim and the i3368. To that end, the following changes are
proposed:







"Continue" button renamed to "Next"
"Sign Off" button (beginning on page ap011 and continuing through page rs003):
o renamed to "Sign Off (finish later)"
o moved (from top left corner to bottom left corner)
"Send" button (501/561 Request on page ap010 and 3441 Report on page rs003) renamed to "Submit"
"Finished" button renamed to "Finish"
Removed bold from all buttons throughout the application
In footer, replaced “How to Move Around This Report” with “Tips for Using this Website” (new name for
msg022)

Deleted Pages
The language changes proposed for this release render the following pages obsolete:

Dynamic Behavior
The iAppeals application handles appeals both for the Reconsideration and Hearing phases of a claim. When a
claimant with a denial on file complete and submits page ap005 Claimant information, the system determines
which phase the claim is in and displays pages from the appropriate path. This screen package includes both the
Reconsideration and Hearing versions of affected screens, denoted as either “rc” or “hr” added to the screen
number (e.g., ap008rc and ap008hr).
At the end of the 3441, the user is presented with a confirmation page with a link to his receipt and a list of links to
documents that are needed based upon his specific case. (The list is repeated in his customized cover sheet.)
Four links are always displayed; three more may be displayed based on the user’s specific case.
Always display:





Receipt for disability appeal report
Cover sheet
SSA-827 Medical Release Form (Authorization to Disclose Information to the Social Security
Administration)
instructions (for completing the medical release form)

Display, if:

Form Number and Title
SSA-1696 Appointment of
Representative
HA-4608 Waiver of Your Right to
Personal Appearance before ALJ
SSA-3881 Questionnaire for Children
Claiming SSI Benefits

Based on page
ap008rc,
ap008hr
ap008hr
ap005

Condition
Question “Do you currently have a
representative?” answered Yes
Question “Do you wish to appear at
the hearing?” answered No
Claimant age < 18 years(calculated
from date of birth)

However, if a user loses his reentry number before completing the 3441 and begins a new report, the system can
no longer present a customized list. In that situation, the system would present the all possible forms the user
may need. [See rs004 Confirmation and printing (Longest possible version) and msg081 Cover sheet (Longest
possible version).]

address, telephone number), and those entries are carried forward here. However, these entries are not
carried forward if a user should (for whatever reason) abandon the report and chose to begin a new
report. Users who do so would instead see a fillable version of this page (see next page--ay001 About
you: general information - fillable (conditional)).
