How do I submit a claim for reconsideration?
An applicant whose claim was not accepted or finalised to the satisfaction of the claimant, may apply to have their claim reconsidered. An officer who has not been involved in making the original decision will undertake the reconsideration of your claim. This is to ensure that you will receive a fair and impartial reassessment of your claim. When the reconsideration is finalised you will receive written advice for the outcome of the reconsideration and the reason for the decision.
You can access and submit the Application for Reconsideration form below. It is important that you indicate the basis upon which you believe the original claim decision was incorrect. Please also include any new information that may further support your claim and provide as much relevant information as possible, and attach extra notes if required.
