Incorrectly Logged Award Notice (Info)

There is an Action Guide for this subject, click on 'Next Page' to access it

Only signed award notices should be logged onto the computer.

However, a notice that is unsigned may be logged in error. This may occur if an unsigned notice is sorted, mistakenly, into a pile of signed notices waiting to be logged. It will not be possible to identify, on the computer, that this mistake has occurred.

You may either realise the mistake

  • Immediately

Or

  • Whilst you are processing work at a later stage, for example when amending a change of circumstances

If you notice that an unsigned notice has been incorrectly logged, you must

  • Unlog the returned award notice
  • Return the award notice to the claimant for confirmation and signature
