If your application for the Persons with Persistent Multiple Barriers (PPMB) benefit was turned down by the Ministry of Social Development and Poverty Reduction (MSDPR) and your Request for Reconsideration has been denied, you can appeal the Ministry’s decision. You can ask for an Appeal Tribunal to hear your case. This Help Sheet is designed to help you understand the appeal process and how to ask for an Appeal Tribunal. Please note that, although this Help Sheet provides an overview of the appeal process and gives suggestions on how you may increase your chance of success, it does not take the place of an advocate’s assistance.
