How long do I have to make a complaint?
11) Normally, you must make your complaint within six months of:
- the event you want to complain about; or
- finding out that you have a reason to complain.
12) In exceptional circumstances, we may be able to accept a complaint after the time limit. If you feel that the time limit should not apply to your complaint, please tell us why.
