Excellent news! I was emailed a copy of the new transfer list today, so that augurs well, too, for you job-seekers.

They should make those positions 100 percent telework

How many new ALJs will be hired and in what cities.
Will they use the old Register to limit the initial list of prospective applicants as they did last time?

Nice find!
So they plan to hire by end of FY22 meaning job announcements in the 2nd-3rd qtr or within a year!

Right now no cases why hire? The bureaucratic mind at work.

If Terry has any say in this they will hire a slew of AAJs and they will conduct hearings via MSTeams or video. The regulatory scheme is in place already

Hopefully not as AAJ doing online hearings would cause significant bipartisan pushback in congress.

Nahh they may be anticipating alj retirements While I don't have time to post it the Budget Proposal anticipates a large uptick in cases at the hearing level from two sources (1) a current back log at the initial level which due to problems with CEs, records, and other processing issues has grown larger than usual; and (2) they anticipate a larger than usual number of filings at the end of the year because the number of filings at the beginning of the year and during the pandemic has been low. The budget actually seems to be planning for the future. ALJ attrition is not listed as one of the reasons. But it may be accounted for behind the page.

The budget actually seems to be planning for the future. ALJ attrition is not listed as one of the reasons. But it may be accounted for behind the page. the budgetary proposal for FY 2020 also included a proposal for 1320 ALJs. While attrition of ALJ Corp was thought to be the idea behind that, it’s also possible that there exists a report somewhere that 1320 or so is the optimum/minimum number of ALJs that can serve properly. Point being that although it’s possible that number was pulled from thin air, it’s more likely it exists as some type of actual target.

Or both! It was a number pulled from thin air AND it is being used as a target!!

NPR had an interesting article about how some Americans had not filed claims with the District Offices closed. Some older people, folks with intellectual deficits, people with language barriers, or people with no internet access, may not be able to file. Once the offices reopen, we may see a flood of new claims.
