To make early resolution of disputes easier for you, a WSIB decision-maker will reconsider decisions at your request. Once you receive a copy of your claim file, you should review the information to see if anything is missing that may affect the decision that you are objecting to. If so, you should send this information to the decision-maker. If you do not have all the information please let the decision-maker know what is missing.
The decision-maker will review any new information and reconsider the decision again, and if you are not satisfied with the outcome, you can still decide to make a formal appeal.
If you do not have any new information to provide and you wish to continue with your objection you must complete the Appeal readiness form.
