Changing decisions - universal credit

CPAG in Scotland

This course gives you the essential skills to get universal credit decisions changed. There are different ways to legally change a decision. To be effective, you need to identify which applies in your client’s case. It might be a mandatory reconsideration, revision or supersession. In some cases, a complaint, dispute or judicial review might be the more appropriate course of action. The same processes apply to other DWP benefits.

This course explains the jargon and takes a practical, problem-solving approach to help advisers identify the right way to get decisions changed and get processes unblocked, and so get the best outcome for claimants.
