STIPULATION TO VOLUNTARY REMAND PURSUANT TO SENTENCE FOUR OF 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) AND TO ENTRY OF JUDGMENT FOR PLAINTIFF

BARBARA A. McAULIFFE, Magistrate Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by the parties, through their respective counsel of record, that this action be remanded for further administrative action pursuant to section 205(g) of the Social Security Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. section 405(g), sentence four.

On remand, the Appeals Council will remand the case to an administrative law judge (ALJ) for a new decision. The Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to obtain medical and psychological expert evidence regarding the nature and severity of, and potential limitations resulting from, Plaintiff's impairments during the period at issue. The Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to reassess Plaintiff's subjective statements about her symptoms. The Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to further evaluate whether Plaintiff has the residual functional capacity to perform her past relevant work and, if appropriate, obtain supplemental vocational expert testimony to assist in determining what jobs exist, if any, for Plaintiff given her age, education, vocational factors and residual functional capacity. The Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to take further action, as warranted, to complete the administrative record and resolve the above issues.

The parties further request that the Clerk of the Court be directed to enter a final judgment in favor of Plaintiff, and against Defendant, reversing the final decision of the Commissioner.
