If you do not agree with the decision of the authority, you can appeal against it in the form of an objection. The objection must be submitted within one month after you have been notified of the administrative act in writing, in electronic form in accordance with § 36a paragraph 2 of the First Book of the Social Code or for transcription to the body that issued the administrative act. If the authority considers your objections to be well-founded, your objection will be rectified. This is done by cancelling or amending the initial decision or by granting your application. Otherwise, it shall issue a notice of opposition.

If the objection is unsuccessful, you can bring an action before the social court. Here, too, the period of one month after you have received the notice of objection applies.
