BWC Form C-77You’ve moved and you didn’t inform Ohio Workers’ Compensation that you have a new address.  Your benefits are at risk when the BWC has your incorrect address!

If orders are issued regarding your claim and you don’t appeal in a timely fashion, your benefits could end. There is a mechanism to correct the situation, but that might take months. If orders are issued that you do not receive, you will have to file a motion with the BWC requesting Ohio Revised Code § 4123.522 relief. This motion will be forwarded to the Ohio Industrial Commission for adjudication. This is a scenario that takes time, during which your benefits – temporary total disability – medical treatment – might be suspended. Don’t let that happen.

You can easily notify the OhioBWC that you have a new address by filing a C-77 Form, Notification of Change of Address

 Once you download the form from this link, you can Fax the form to the OhioBWC  using their Toll Free Fax Number 1-877-520-OHIO (6446) or you can mail the form to  BWC 30 W. Spring St. Columbus, OH 43215-2256.

Just remember to keep the BWC and your lawyer up to date with your new address and any new phone number you have.
