Fees
You may have to pay a fee to apply - the form will say how much. You can apply for help paying the fee if you’re getting certain benefits or on a low income.
If you’re a legal or property professional applying to the tribunal on behalf of a client, you can pay with your Payment by Account (PBA) number. When you send the form, you need to include your PBA number in the email.

Email the form to the regional office that covers your area.
What happens next
You’ll be told whether the tribunal will consider your case. You may need to provide more evidence, for example additional supporting documents.
You may be told that the case does not need a hearing and can be decided on your application alone (known as a ‘paper decision’). You can still ask for a hearing (‘oral hearing’) if you’d like one.
