How to write an appeal letter

An appeal asks someone to look again at a decision. The best appeals answer the stated reason for the decision directly, add any evidence that was missing, and ask for a clear outcome.

• Check the deadline in the decision letter and file before it.
• Quote the reason for the decision and respond to it point by point.
• Enclose evidence and list it at the end of the letter.
• Stay calm and factual. Accusations without evidence rarely help.

Before you send it

• Replace every [bracketed] placeholder or delete the line.
• Check that each date, amount and name is exactly right.
• Remove anything that is not true or that you cannot support.
• Keep a copy and note when and how you sent it.
