File an Appeal

Any party to the claim may file an appeal. The party must file the appeal in writing, and it must be received within the appeal period. BWC will not accept a verbal appeal.

You may use the Notice of Appeal (IC-12) to file an appeal. BWC accepts any appeal as long as it contains the following information:

  • Name of the injured worker and employer;
  • Claim number;
  • Date of the order being appealed;
  • Reason for appeal.
You can get an IC-12 at any BWC customer service office or IC hearing office. Sign and date the appeal, then mail, fax, or deliver it to the local BWC customer service office or IC office.
