DECISION AND ORDER INTRODUCTION Plaintiff BillyJo M. (“Plaintiff”) moves for attorneys’ fees in the amount of $7,020.15 pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §406(b). (Dkt. 31; see also Dkt. 22). The Commissioner of Social Security (“the Commissioner”) does not object to the amount that Plaintiff seeks but challenges the motion’s timeliness. (Dkt. 33). For the reasons discussed below, the Court grants Plaintiff’s motion. BACKGROUND On July 11, 2017, Plaintiff filed this action, seeking review of the Commissioner’s final decision denying his application for Disability Insurance Benefits and Supplemental Security Income. (Dkt. 1). Plaintiff moved for judgment on the pleadings on February 22, 2018. (Dkt. 10). The Commissioner submitted her response and cross-motion for judgment on the pleadings on April 16, 2018. (Dkt. 13). On July 31, 2018, the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion in part, denied the Commissioner’s cross motion, and remanded the matter to the Commissioner for further administrative proceedings. (Dkt. 15). By Stipulated Order filed October 2, 2019, the Court approved payment to Plaintiff’s counsel of $4,550.00 for services performed in connection with this action, pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. §2412(d) (“EAJA”). (Dkt. 21). Thereafter, the Commissioner issued a Notice of Award on April 14, 2020, in connection with Plaintiff’s claims, indicating that $13,001.40 was withheld to pay Plaintiff’s representative, amounting to 25 percent of Plaintiff’s past due benefits. (Dkt. 22-3 at 4; Dkt. 22-1 at 4). The Commissioner did not initially send a copy of the Notice of Award to Plaintiff’s counsel, and thus it was not received by counsel until August 11, 2020. (Dkt. 22-1 at 4; Dkt. 33 at 2, 5). On August 25, 2020, Plaintiff moved for attorneys’ fees pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §406(b). (Dkt. 22). The Commissioner challenged Plaintiff’s motion for attorneys’ fees on the grounds that it was filed outside of the 14-day filing period proscribed by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54(d)(2)(B) and this District’s Local Rule of Civil Procedure 5.5(g)(1). (Dkt. 25 at 4 (citing Sinkler v. Berryhill, 932 F.3d 83 (2d Cir. 2019)). With the Court’s leave, Plaintiff then filed a reply addressing the Commissioner’s timeliness challenge and requesting that the Court hold Plaintiff’s motion for attorneys’ fees in abeyance until counsel could ascertain the agency representative’s fee award pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §406(a). (Dkt. 28). The Court granted Plaintiff’s request to hold Plaintiff’s motion for attorneys’ fees in abeyance. (Dkt. 29). On December 21, 2020, Plaintiff filed an amended motion seeking $7,020.15, which represents 25 percent of Plaintiff’s total award less the fee award of $5,981.25 for which Plaintiff’s agency representative applied.
