If a Vocational Expert testifies in my case and says that the jobs he thinks I can do are not listed in The Dictionary of Occupational titles or are not consistent with that book, how do I appeal that?

If the Vocational Expert testified that you the Claimant could return to a job that had no D.O.T. number. As such, you may state that “The VE’s testimony was not consistent with the Dictionary of Occupational Titles and was not a competent substantial basis upon which the ALJ’s opinion should have been based.”
