Appealing a Decision to a Review Tribunal Under the Canada Pension Plan

Changing your hearing date

Before the hearing date

If you cannot be at your hearing for the date or time scheduled, call your Client Services Officer right away. You will need to provide a valid reason to change the hearing date.

On the day of the hearing

At the beginning of the hearing, any party can ask the Review Tribunal to grant an adjournment. A valid reason must be provided for the adjournment request as well as an explanation as to why the request was not made sooner.

If the hearing is adjourned, the Review Tribunal will notify the OCRT in writing. Once the matter for the adjournment has been addressed, we will contact you to schedule another hearing. Please note that it may take up to six months to reschedule another hearing.
