The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority are moving

2 Sep 2014 10:53 AM

The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority helpline will be closed from 5pm Thursday 4 to 12.30pm Monday 8 September while they move to new premises. You can still apply for criminal injuries compensation on GOV.UK.

You can apply for compensation if you or someone you know has been hurt in a violent crime in the past 2 years - you’ll need to fill in an online form.

What you need to know

Start know on the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) website

You’ll need the unique police reference number and contact details for the doctor (if you were treated for the injury).

There’s a different process for compensation schemes in Northern Ireland.
