Citizens Advice Benefits Advice
Checks and support with benefit claims, appeals, mandatory reconsiderations and missing payments.
Being turned down is not the same as not being entitled, and a second look is often worth taking.
About this service
Citizens Advice Arun & Chichester helps people check what benefits and tax credits they can claim, complete applications, and challenge decisions that seem wrong. Advisers can request a mandatory reconsideration, help build an appeal, and chase payments that have stopped or never started, including universal credit and disability benefits. A benefits check often turns up entitlements people did not know existed, and it is worth doing even when a claim is already in payment.

Maximises legitimate income and fights unfair decisions so households receive what they are entitled to.
What to expect
An adviser will review your circumstances and any decision letters, then explain what you can claim and how to challenge it.

Arun residents who are claiming benefits, waiting for a decision, or unsure what they can claim.
