1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
RENDELL, Circuit Judge.
Bonita Lynch appeals the District Court’s order upholding her onset date of disability benefits under the Social Security Act as determined by the Commissioner of Social Security. Lynch argues that: (1) the Administrative Law Judge’s (“ALJ”) determination of the onset date was not supported by “substantial evidence;” and (2) the ALJ erred in denying her request to open a previous application.
