Universal Credit appeals guidance

The request was successful.

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

I would like copies of any guidance and process documents pertaining to how a Universal Credit claim is managed once a Tribunal overturns a decision refusing Universal Credit.

I am particularly interested in when a Case Manager should be allocated to the case, but would like to understand the entire process.

Yours faithfully,

Dan Manville

I note that they have very (un)helpfully sent you a link to the DMG which is for legacy (historic?) benefits and not for UC.

Could it be that the ADM does not cover appeals?

To be honest the discussion of the process in the reply addressed my enquiry; I needed to know how the activities are passed from the DRT to the local service centres. I hadn't looked at the links.

I would, however, expect something from the Common Appeals Procedure Guidance...
