RRB RIN: 3220-AB68 Publication ID: Spring 2019 
Title: Providing Evidence of Disability 
Abstract:

We propose to amend our regulations regarding the submission of evidence in disability claims to require you to inform us or submit all evidence known to you that relates to your disability claims with exceptions for privileged communications and duplicates. This requirement would include the duty to submit all evidence obtained from any source in its entirety, subject to one of these exceptions. These modifications to our regulations would better describe your duty to submit all evidence that relates to your disability claim and will enable us to have a more complete case record which will allow us to make more accurate determinations of your disability status.
