requirements.
Your name, address, Social Security number (SSN);
date TWC mailed you the decision you want to appeal;
request for translators for witnesses, if needed, and what language;
request special services for witnesses, such as an interpreter for the hearing-impaired.
IMPORTANT: If you miss the deadline on this form, explain in detail on the appeal why you appealed late. If TWC
decides not to hear the case because you appealed late, we will mail you a decision that you may appeal.
The first appeal level is a telephone hearing with the Appeal Tribunal (AT). The AT hearing consists of oral
statements given under oath. Your employer may also appeal and participate in your hearing. You may call
witnesses. Legal representation is optional. You may have someone represent you, but TWC does not provide
representation.
Keep your mailing address current. We will mail you the AT decision. It is important that you participate in the AT
hearing because the hearing officer makes the decision solely on testimony given at the hearing. If you cannot
participate at the scheduled time, call the hearing officer at the number listed on the hearing notice.
Date and Time. We will mail you and the employer a hearing notice packet with the date and time of your hearing
with instructions on submitting additional documents you may want to present at the hearing. You must mail or fax
copies of the additional documents to the employer and TWC immediately after receiving the hearing packet.
Additional Appeals
If you disagree with the AT decision, you may submit a Commission Appeal (CA). The Commission will rule on your
case after reviewing the AT decision and listening to the recorded hearing. If you disagree with the CA decision, you
may request a Motion for Rehearing (MR) within 14 calendar days of the mailing date of the CA decision. TWC will
grant the MR if you can show all of these:
important new information about your case;
why the information could change the decision; and
a compelling reason why you did not present the information earlier.
You may also appeal the CA decision to a civil court between 15 and 28 days after the date we mailed you the CA
decision. You must complete an AT hearing and CA appeal before appealing to a civil court.
