   MEMORANDUM

Jason DeOcampo appeals from the district court’s grant of summary judgment to the Commissioner of Social Security. The administrative law judge (ALJ) denied DeOcampo’s application for supplemental security income, and the Appeals Council declined to reopen DeOcampo’s case.

DeOcampo argues that a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) disability rating— issued after the ALJ’s decision — constitutes new and material evidence requiring a remand for a hearing before the ALJ. See Hoa Hong Van v. Barnhart, 483 F.3d 600, 605 (9th Cir.2007). DeOcampo has failed to show that there is a “reasonable possibility” that, had the ALJ considered the VA rating, the result of the proceedings would have been different. Mayes v. Massanari, 276 F.3d 453, 462 (9th Cir.2001). Although DeOcampo claims that the ALJ confused his encounter with police with the alleged shooting of his cousin, the VA’s decision does not distinguish between these two events. Moreover, before the district court, DeOcampo conceded that the VA’s decision was based on the same medical information presented to the ALJ, and he is bound by those concessions. See Reynoso v. Giurbino, 462 F.3d 1099, 1110 (9th Cir.2006).

DeOcampo’s argument that Luna v. As-true, 623 F.3d 1032 (9th Cir.2010), requires a remand in this case is similarly unavailing. Luna was concerned with conflicting disability determinations within the same agency, id. at 1034, whereas DeOcampo’s case presents different disability decisions by different agencies. Luna is inapposite.

DeOcampo also contends that Valentine v. Commissioner Social Security Administration, 574 F.3d 685 (9th Cir.2009), requires the ALJ, in particular, to consider the VA’s rating, regardless of when the VA issued its decision. But neither Valentine nor this circuit’s related precedents require the ALJ — as opposed to the Appeals Council — to consider a VA rating issued after the ALJ’s decision, and the Appeals Council did consider the VA rating in this case. In sum, DeOcampo has not shown that the agency’s decision lacked substantial evidence or contained legal error. See Bayliss v. Barnhart, 427 F.3d 1211, 1214 n. 1 (9th Cir.2005).

Because DeOcampo failed to raise his remaining arguments before the district court, they are waived. Abogados v. AT & T, Inc., 223 F.3d 932, 937 (9th Cir.2000). We deny his requests for judicial notice as moot.

AFFIRMED.
