Key legal question
Whether the IV office had to enter into the new disability benefits application
Extracted holding
Entry is required only if the applicant plausibly shows a legally relevant change in circumstances since the last final merits decision; that showing was not made here.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 87 IVV, a new application is admissible only when changed circumstances are made plausible. The cantonal findings that the alleged deterioration was not plausibly demonstrated were not manifestly incorrect, and the office did not exceed its discretion by requesting additional medical information before refusing entry.
