CQC Registration Rejection | Fast-Track Appeal Support

Fast, structured CQC registration appeal support when CQC has issued a Notice of Proposal or Notice of Decision to refuse your registration, or when your application is at risk of refusal. Statutory deadlines are short (usually 28 days), so we move quickly to build your representations and get your application back on track.

How CQC registration appeal support works

1. Urgent case review. We review your Notice of Proposal or Notice of Decision, CQC’s stated grounds, your original application and your deadline, and agree the strategy with you.
2. Stage 1 delivery: representations and evidence. We draft your written representations point-by-point against CQC’s grounds, and build the supporting evidence bundle (corrected policies, governance evidence, training records, action plan), in as little as 24 to 48 hours once requirements are met.
3. Submission. We check everything and support submission of your representations to CQC within the statutory deadline.
4. Stage 2 delivery: hearing and follow-up support. Responses to any further CQC questions, preparation for the representations hearing or interview including a question-and-answer pack and a 2-hour mock session with written feedback, follow-up with CQC on your behalf, and guidance on a First-tier Tribunal appeal if the decision is upheld.
5. Outcome. CQC withdraws the proposal, grants registration, or we advise you on next steps.

Stage 1: representations and evidence bundle

• Full written representations addressing each of CQC’s grounds
• Supporting evidence bundle, indexed and cross-referenced
• Remedial action plan showing how each concern has been fixed
• Updated or corrected policies and documents where CQC’s grounds relate to your document pack

Stage 2: hearing, interview and follow-up

• Responses to further CQC questions and information requests
• Hearing and interview question-and-answer preparation pack
• 2-hour mock hearing/interview session with written feedback
• Follow-up with CQC on your behalf until the outcome
• First-tier Tribunal appeal guidance if the decision is upheld

Timescales and payment

Your representations and evidence bundle are drafted in as little as 24 to 48 hours once your requirements are met. CQC’s decision timescales are set by CQC and are outside our control.

You can pay in two stages for CQC registration appeal support: 50% to begin (Stage 1 representations and evidence) and 50% at submission stage, which covers hearing preparation, the mock session and CQC follow-up.

What we need from you

To meet the statutory deadline we need your documents promptly: the Notice of Proposal or Decision, your original application and correspondence with CQC, and any evidence only you can obtain (DBS checks, training records, insurance, lease and premises documents, financial evidence). Delays in providing these are outside our control and can put the deadline at risk.
