If you do not get ODSP
If the ODSP or DAU says you cannot get ODSP, you can appeal.
Step 1: Internal review
Write to the office that made the decision and ask for an internal review.
In an internal review, someone else from that office looks at the decision and decides whether to change it.
CLEO has a tool that helps you write a letter to the ODSP or DAU. Go to stepstojustice.ca/ask-odsp-review.
Step 2: Social Benefits Tribunal
If you do not agree with the internal review decision, you can appeal to the Social Benefits Tribunal (SBT).
The SBT is not part of the ODSP or DAU and can make a different decision.
CLEO has a resource about how to make an appeal and important deadlines.
