Housing and Council Tax Benefit - Appeals

If you want to know more about a decision regarding your benefit entitlement, or if you think it is wrong, you should contact us as soon as possible.

If there is anything you are unclear about, we can provide you with an explanation. If you disagree with a decision you can ask us to look at it again. If we cannot change the decision we will tell you why.

If you still disagree, you have one month to appeal from the date of the new decision.

Appealing against a decision

An appeal can be made at any time within one month of the date of your notification letter or the date of the new decision. If you have already asked for an explanation, or for us to look at the decision again, you can still appeal.

To appeal against a decision, you must write to us saying which decision you are appealing against and give your reasons for doing so. Your appeal will be heard by an independent tribunal administered by the Appeals Service.

Remember that you should contact us using the details on the right within one month of the date of your notification letter or we may not be able to consider any dispute.
