Housing Benefit Appeals
If you don’t agree with how we worked out your benefit, write to us and tell us what you think we have done wrong.
You have one month to do this from the date we notify you of the award.
You can ask us to provide a statement of reasons why we reached our decision or ask an officer to look at the decision again. If you are still not satisfied with what we have done, you can appeal the decision. An independent tribunal will hear the appeal.
You may wish to seek help and advice from an advice agency before going to appeal.
