I would need more information to answer your case -- is this at the initial; reconsideration; ALj or Appeals Council? If it is at the Appeals Council was the case remanded for a new hearing in front of an ALJ? More information is needed to answer your question.
There are many qualified Social Security attorneys in Chicago -- you may wish to take yoru paperwork into one of their offices and let them read it and assist you in finding out what is going on in your case.
You really haven't provided sufficient information to answer your question. I recommend that you contact your local state or county bar association for a referral to an attorney who may be able to assist you, or contact a local legal aid society.
Appeal deadlines and appellate relief requests are very specific. This will be true in the appeal you described.
If you are represented by counsel the question you have should really be posed to him or her. You really have not provided sufficient information to answer your questions anyway. An online forum in not really the appropriate place to do this complex a problem, in any event. I join the others that have answered as I recommend that if you do not have an attorney, you shoud contact your local state or city bar association for a referral to an attorney experience in social security matters.
Good luck to you.
