Administrative decisions and actions
Guidance on submitting inquiries about decisions or actions by administrative authorities other than immigration authorities.
Situations to organize
- I received a notice refusing industrial accident insurance benefits.
- I have a problem involving a business permit or suspension.
- I disagree with an administrative authority’s refusal or revocation decision.
Documents that may help
- Written administrative decision or notice
- Date you received the notice and records of service
- Original application, submitted documents and the authority’s replies
Next steps after your inquiry
Tell us which authority made the decision, when you received the notice, what was decided and whether you have supporting documents.
Challenge procedures and deadlines vary by authority and type of decision. General administrative appeal procedures do not apply to every decision. An inquiry alone does not stop a deadline from running or suspend enforcement.
