Is my CICA award final, or can I claim more later?

Once your CICA claim has been concluded, it is possible in some circumstances to apply for more compensation if your condition becomes worse. This is known as a “re-opening” claim.

In summary, the CICA can re-open claims if there has been a significant deterioration in your condition and that it would lead to an injustice if the original decision was allowed to stand.

There are strict rules which apply to re-opening claims, and the CICA deals with them under a different procedure to other cases. We would be happy to discuss your case with you without any charge or obligation.
