CIZ objection advice in Utrecht: deadlines and formal requirements

In Utrecht, filing an objection against a CIZ decision requires strict compliance with deadlines and formal requirements, particularly relevant for Utrecht residents with care needs in the region. According to the General Administrative Law Act (Awb, art. 6:7), the objection must be filed with the CIZ within six weeks after the date of the decision. Use the official CIZ objection form or draft a letter containing your name, Utrecht address, date of birth, the decision number, and a clear motivation for your objections. Attach medical reports from Utrecht general practitioners or specialists from the UMC Utrecht, plus witness statements as evidence. The CIZ confirms receipt and decides within 6 to 12 weeks, possibly with extension. During the procedure, the decision is often suspended, so ongoing Wmo or Youth Care benefits in Utrecht are maintained. In case of deadline overrun, Awb art. 6:11 offers a remedy opportunity if you demonstrate that the oversight was not intentional. Do you live in Utrecht? Contact the Juridisch Loket Utrecht (Kanaalweg 83) or the Wmo counter of the municipality of Utrecht for free assistance in drafting. Local legal aid, such as via the Utrecht legal clinic network, increases your chances of success through specific knowledge of regional care rules.
