Benefits Navigator

Got a letter saying your benefits are ending?

Paste what it says. You'll get the deadline that keeps your coverage while you appeal, what the letter is missing, and a hearing request you can send.

This is a free self-help tool, not legal advice, and it can't tell you whether you'll win. It shows what your notice says, what the rules require, and your deadlines — so you can act. For help with your case, contact your local legal aid office.

Which benefit is the notice about?

Paste the text of your notice (type or paste what it says)

Include the date printed at the top of the letter if you can — that date decides which version of the rules your notice had to follow.
