The SSA is required by law to reconsider your IRMAA surcharge if your income dropped. Here's what you need to know.
Medicare uses your tax return from 2 years ago to set your premium. If you had a high-income year — from a business sale, Roth conversion, or last year of work — you're now paying an IRMAA surcharge even though your income has dropped.
The SSA allows you to appeal if your income fell because of retirement, job loss, divorce, death of a spouse, or reduced work hours. You don't have to wait for your tax return to catch up — you can appeal now.
We identify your life-changing event, complete the SSA-44 appeal form, draft a personalized sworn statement (SSA-795), and build a tailored document checklist — so your appeal is complete, organized, and ready to mail.
The appeal window is time-sensitive.
The SSA processes appeals year-round, but delays cost you money every month you wait.

Documentation such as an employer letter, divorce decree, or death certificate. You'll mail this with your completed forms — you don't need it in hand to start.
