If you miss the time limit for requesting a review of a decision, you should contact High Peak Council as they might still be able to accept your request in certain circumstances. This applies to both Housing Benefit and Council Tax Reduction decisions.
Here’s a quick overview of the time limits and what to do if they're missed:
| Type of Claim | Time Limit for Review | Action if Missed |
|---|---|---|
| Housing Benefit | 1 month | Contact the council; appeal to Independent Tribunal possible. |
| Council Tax Reduction | 2 months | Contact the council; potential appeal to Valuation Tribunal. |
It's best to reach out to them as soon as you realize the deadline was missed, as they may still provide support for your appeal. You can find more details and the contact information on High Peak Council's website.
