Judicial review template letter

DWP UC 'claim closure' due to unlawful application of the HRT to a refugee

JR153

Use this template to challenge the DWP's decision to 'close', ie, refuse your client's claim for universal credit (UC) because they do not satisfy the habitual residence test (HRT) when your client is a refugee and so exempt from the HRT.

These letters are for advisers, not members of the public.

If you don't have an adviser, you may be able to find one at advicelocal.uk

We'll discuss your client's case with you and advise whether this pre-action letter is appropriate.

We can support you to complete the letter or help you draft your own.

If a pre-action letter is not appropriate, we'd still be happy to share templates with you if they would help you challenge the decision in a different way.
