In addition our helpline will be closed on:

  • Wednesday 29 March
  • Easter Monday, 10 April
  • Tuesday 25 April
  • May Day
  • Wednesday 17 May and
  • Ascension Day on Thursday 18 May

  • Mondays from 9–12
  • Tuesdays 12–14
  • Wednesdays 9–12 and
  • Thursdays 9–12.

You can use our electronic service even when we are unreachable. In the eService, you can view payment notices and decisions, and send applications and messages to us, among other things.
