Request for remission rejected

How it works

Has your request for remission been rejected or partially rejected and do you believe this to be incorrect? If so, you can submit an appeal. You must submit your appeal within ten days of the date of the decision on your request for remission. In your appeal, explain why you disagree with the decision. Include the following information in your appeal:

  • your name, address, and place of residence;
  • the claim number of the assessment for which your request for remission was rejected;
  • the reason why you are appealing;
  • copies of documents supporting your appeal.

You can send your appeal to:

The Board of the Dike Reeve and Water Board Members
Postbus
1700 AA Heerhugowaard

We do not forward your appeal to your municipality, nor do we receive appeals from your municipality. This means you must submit a separate appeal to each authority!

Deferral of payment

While your appeal is being processed, we will suspend collection.

The payment arrangement via direct debit will continue!

Appeal assessment

When assessing your appeal, we will base our decision on the information provided in your request for remission and on the remission standards that applied at the time. If your income has fallen significantly since you submitted your request for remission, we will take this into account.
