Identifying Terminated Unsigned Award Correspondence - Appeals Action (Info)

There is an action guide for this subject, click on ‘Next Page’ to access it

This guidance will be used to identify correspondence where the claim has been terminated due to the claimant not returning a signed award notice.

The correspondence can be received at any time and can be any of the following

• The claimant has stated that their payments have stopped
   
• The claimant is complaining that they cannot contact HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC)
   
• The claimant states that their payments have stopped and the signed award notice has already been returned to HMRC
   
• Any miscellaneous correspondence

If the claimant suggests they have returned their signed award notice, you must attempt to retrieve the signed award notice from storage.

If the claim is terminated, but not due to an unsigned award notice, follow the guidance in Identify If An Appeal Has Been Renewals Terminated
