How do I use the Ombudsman of the CAF or the AMM?

Verified 13 February 2024 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

The Administrative Ombudsman of the Caf: titleContent (general scheme) or the MSA: titleContent (agricultural plan) may be seized when the response to a claim is not satisfactory.

Caf

The administrative mediator of the FCA intervenes following an unsuccessful referral to the services of the FCA.

For example, one must have already tried to solve the problem by contacting the relevant service before approaching the Ombudsman.

The Ombudsman's action concerns individual family and social benefits (example:back-to-school allowance) paid by the CAF.

It re-establishes communication between the recipient and these services.

Warning  

The initiation of a legal action before the court ends the mediation.

The Ombudsman may be contacted by Internet or by post.
