Electronic Appeals Submission (EAS)
 
Electronic Appeal Submission Instructions

What is an Appeal?
A written request for a hearing at the Office of Appeals or a further review of an Office of Appeals or Appeals Board decision. When the department issues a decision regarding benefits, a document is sent to the parties. The documents listed below have appeal rights and instructions and may be appealed:
  • Determination of Deputy
  • Decision or Disposition from the Office of Appeals

  • Decision from the Appeals Board
If you wish to appeal a different document or have other questions, please contact the Call Center at (602)364-2722 or 1(877)600-2722 for assistance.
