Requests to Suspend the Appeals Process
The MAC does not have the authority to suspend redeterminations at the request of the Office of the

bring that request to the attention of CO through the RO.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
