ORDER

(Docket Nos. 4, 6,)

NANCY J. KOPPE, Magistrate Judge.

Plaintiff has requested authority pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915 to proceed in forma pauperis, (Docket Nos. 4,6), and submitted a Complaint (Docket No. 1-1).

I. Application to Proceed In Forma Pauperis

Plaintiff has submitted the affidavit required by § 1915(a) showing an inability to prepay fees and costs or give security for them. Docket No. 6. Accordingly, the request to proceed in forma pauperis (Docket No. 6) will be granted pursuant to § 1915(a). The previous application (Docket No. 4) will be denied as moot.

The Court will now review Plaintiff's Complaint.

II. Screening the Complaint

Proceeding in forma pauperis is a privilege, not a right. E.g., Williams v. Field, 394 F.2d 329, 332 (9th Cir. 1968). When a party seeks permission to pursue a civil case in forma papueris, courts will screen the complaint pursuant to federal statute. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). In particular, the governing statute provides that courts shall dismiss a case at any time if it determines that, inter alia, it is frivolous or malicious, or fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted. See id. A central function of this screening process is to "discourage the filing of, and waste of judicial and private resources upon, baseless lawsuits that paying litigants generally do not initiate because of the cost of bringing suit." Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 327 (1989).

In civil cases in which the plaintiff seeks to proceed in forma pauperis, courts require that the plaintiff comply with the robust authority that complaints must provide sufficient notice of the basis of the claims presented and state a claim for relief. See, e.g., Watison v. Carter, 668 F.3d 1108, 1112 (9th Cir. 2012). Complaints are subject to the pleading standards set out in Rule 8. Swierkiewicz v. Sorema N.A., 534 U.S. 506, 512 (2002). Although Rule 8 does not require detailed factual allegations, the complaint must set forth the grounds of the plaintiff's entitlement to relief and may not rest on "labels and conclusions" or a "formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action." Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009). Courts must accept as true all well-pled factual allegations contained in the complaint, but the same requirement does not apply to legal conclusions. Id. at 679. Mere recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported only by conclusory allegations, do not suffice. Id. at 678. Moreover, where the claims in the complaint have not crossed the line from conceivable to plausible, the complaint should be dismissed. Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007). When a court dismisses a complaint under § 1915(e), the plaintiff should be given leave to amend the complaint with directions as to curing its deficiencies, unless it is clear from the face of the complaint that the deficiencies could not be cured by amendment. See Cato v. United States, 70 F.3d 1103, 1106 (9th Cir. 1995).1

A complaint in a social security appeal is not exempt from the Section 1915(e) screening of in forma pauperis cases generally. Hoagland v. Astrue, 2012 WL 2521753, *1 (E.D. Cal. June 28, 2012) (screening is required "even if the plaintiff pursues an appeal of right, such as an appeal of the Commissioner's denial of social security disability benefits"); see also Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1129 (9th Cir. 2000) (en banc) ("section 1915(e) applies to all in forma pauperis complaints"). Moreover, although a complaint in a social security appeal may differ in some ways from other civil cases, it is also "not exempt from the general rules of civil pleading." Hoagland, 2012 WL 2521753, at *2. With respect to social security appeals specifically, the undersigned and several other judges in this District have outlined some of the basic requirements for complaints to satisfy the Court's screening. First, the plaintiff must establish that he has exhausted her administrative remedies pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), and that the civil action was commenced within sixty days after notice of a final decision. Second, the complaint must indicate the judicial district in which the plaintiff resides. Third, the complaint must state the nature of the plaintiff's disability and when the plaintiff claims he became disabled. Fourth, the complaint must contain a plain, short, and concise statement identifying the nature of the plaintiff's disagreement with the determination made by the Social Security Administration and show that the plaintiff is entitled to relief. See, e.g., Graves v. Colvin, 2015 WL 357121, *2 (D. Nev. Jan. 26, 2015) (collecting cases).

It is the fourth element above on which social security plaintiffs most often stumble. "Every plaintiff appealing an adverse decision of the Commissioner believes that the Commissioner was wrong." Hoagland, 2012 WL 2521753, at *3. A complaint merely stating that the Commissioner's decision was wrong is plainly insufficient to satisfy a plaintiff's pleading requirement. See, e.g., Cribbet v. Comm'r of Social Security, 2012 WL 5308044, *3 (E.D. Cal. Oct. 29, 2012) (citing Brown v. Astrue, 2011 WL 3664429, *2 (D.N.H. Aug. 19, 2011)). "Similarly, a social security complaint that merely parrots the standards used in reversing or remanding a case is not sufficient to withstand a screening pursuant to Section 1915(e)." Graves, 2015 WL 357121, at *2 (citing Ashcroft, 556 U.S. at 678). Instead, "[a] complaint appealing the Commissioner's denial of disability benefits must set forth a brief statement of facts setting forth the reasons why the Commissioner's decision was wrong." Hoagland, 2012 WL 2521753, at *2 (collecting cases) (emphasis added); see also Graves, 2015 WL 357121, at *3 (finding complaint failed to state a claim when it alleged only that "the Commissioner's decision to deny [the plaintiff] benefits was wrong without any indication as to why it was wrong other than a recitation of the general standards that govern this Court's review of that decision"); Harris v. Colvin, 2014 WL 1095941, *4 (C.D. Cal. Mar. 17, 2014) (finding complaint failed to state a claim when it did not "specify . . . the respects in which [the plaintiff] contends that the ALJ's findings are not supported by substantial evidence and/or that the proper legal standards were not applied"); Gutierrez v. Astrue, 2011 WL 1087261, *2 (E.D. Cal. Mar. 23, 2011) (finding complaint failed to comply with Rule 8's notice requirements when it stated only that benefits were denied, but had not "provided any substantive reasons" for appealing that decision and had not "identified any errors in any decision rendered by the Administrative Law Judge"). The plaintiff must provide a statement identifying the basis of the plaintiff's disagreement with the Social Security Administration's determination and must make a showing that the plaintiff is entitled to relief. While this showing need not be made in great detail, it must be presented in sufficient detail for the Court to understand the legal and/or factual issues in dispute so that it can meaningfully screen the complaint pursuant to § 1915(e). Cf. Hoagland, 2012 WL 2521753, at *4 (the complaint should avoid the advocacy and argumentation of the opening brief to be submitted later, but must specifically set forth the facts showing an entitlement to relief).

In this case, Plaintiff has filed a bare-bones, form complaint that is plainly insufficient in light of the above standards. See, e.g., K.M.C. v. Berryhill, 2017 U.S. Dist. Lexis 107526 (D. Nev. July 11, 2017); A.R.N.H. v. Colvin, 2017 U.S. Dist. Lexis 37166 (D. Nev. Mar. 15, 2017); Douzat v. Colvin, 2017 U.S. Dist. Lexis 17091 (D. Nev. Feb. 6, 2017); Mix v. Colvin, 2016 U.S. Dist. Lexis 110128 (D. Nev. Aug. 16, 2016); Macbrair v. Colvin, 2016 U.S. Dist. Lexis 66082 (D. Nev. May 17, 2016); Shields v. Colvin, 2016 U.S. Dist. Lexis 62955 (D. Nev. May 11, 2016); Coleman v.

Dec. 7, 2015); Dearman v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 148862 (D. Nev. Oct. 28, 2015); Lopez v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 145565 (D. Nev. Oct. 26, 2015); Schultz v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 139163 (D. Nev. Oct. 9, 2015); Bernoudy v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 139795 (D. Nev. Oct. 9, 2015); Bogroff v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 114552 (D. Nev. Aug. 27, 2015); Schwei v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 75100 (D. Nev. June 9, 2015); Aguila v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 65292 (D. Nev. May 19, 2015); Vandiver v. Colvin, 2015 U.S. Dist. Lexis 65910 (D. Nev.
