The Director may extend the time limit for making the request for reconsideration if satisfied that a request for reconsideration could not reasonably have been '''delivered''' within the limitation period.  Note that since the legislation restricts consideration to whether or not the request could have been “delivered” within the requisite time period, there are limited grounds for an extension (e.g. interruption of mail service, the applicant moved and the decision was returned to the program for re-direction, etc.).

A reconsideration decision is considered final and conclusive and is not subject to further review except by way of a '''judicial review'''. The legislation provides that an application for judicial review on a question of law or excess of jurisdiction must be brought not later than '''60 days''' after the decision is made. The application is made to the provincial or territorial Superior Court (e.g., Supreme Court of British Columbia). Once the application is accepted, the Superior Court decides whether to set aside the adjudicator’s decision and to order for a re-hearing. Winning at the judicial review hearing is not a guaranteed win at the new adjudicative hearing.
