How to appeal your benefit decision

If we make any decision on your claim we will tell you when your benefit starts, the amount of benefit you have been awarded and how it has been worked out.

You should always check your benefit claim notifications carefully to ensure that all of your details are correct.

If you think your benefit is wrong you should make a benefit enquiry as soon as possible.
