Work Capability Assessment Tribunal Submission Tool

Welcome to our Work Capability Assessment (WCA) Tribunal Submission tool to help you write a submission for the tribunal that explains why the decision the DWP made about the claim for Employment and Support Allowance or the limited capability for work element of Universal Credit claim was wrong. This tool is designed to be used by individuals appealing their own work capability assessment decision, as well as advisers and volunteers helping claimants. We hope that having a submission will make it easier for you on the day of your hearing.

We created these tools to help claimants and those that support them to challenge unfair benefit decisions effectively, even if they cannot get help from an adviser.
