How to write an appeal letter that works

Start with the essentials

Open with your identifying details: name, reference or claim number, and the date of the decision, so the reviewer can find your file immediately.

State your purpose and answer the reason

Say clearly that you are appealing. Then quote the reason given and explain, point by point, why it is wrong or incomplete, backed by evidence.

Make a clear request and attach proof

End with a specific ask: overturn the decision, grant the application, cover the claim, and attach the documents that support you. Keep copies of everything.

Keep the tone calm

Calm and factual beats angry. You are handing a reviewer the material to say yes. Appealify drafts this structure for you, shaped around your specific decision.
