3.5 RECEIVING RULINGS AND RESOLUTIONS
This chapter contains some guidance on avoiding potential slips when receiving decisions
issued by an administrative authority and thus make sure that your rights are
being enforced.
a. All rulings and resolutions must be handed to you in person. In most cases
this means mail delivery and if so, you will be required to sign the acknowledgment
of receipt, confirming that the delivery was received.
The day you receive any official documents will always be important, because
it is considered as a starting date of a limited eligibility period, during
which you must either regularise your application or perform some other
specified action. If you fail to perform the required action within the given
deadlines due to negligence, you are running the risk of administrative procedure
termination.
b. If you have a legal or authorised representative, keep an eye on the arrival of
all mail that he is to receive on your behalf.
c. Decisions regarding your applications will be sent to the address you specify
in your applications, so make sure you give the exact and existing address. If
you do not have your own address, use one belonging to a person you trust.
3.6 THE RIGHT TO APPEAL
You may appeal against a decision addressed to you on the first level, even if administrative
authority did not specify this fact in the decision. It is, on the other hand,
impossible to make an appeal if the decision explicitly indicates it. You may submit a
complaint about a decision at the administrative authority that issued the decision.
You may do so either in writing or orally on the record.
