    It’s could potentially be at least several months, maybe longer. So yes quite possibly next year for your hearing. Some people do have an offer made by DWP before the hearing but this is rare so you shouldn’t expect that to happen.

    hey hannah yes started the proceedings for tribunal today sent mri results but was wondering will they have my evidence from the start of the claim so I don’t have to send anymore? Also read that 90% of claims are won at tribunal with no new evidence

    You don’t need to send any evidence that you’ve already send. DWP will send everything to them and you will receive this in the “bundle.”

    Tribunal success rate is currently about 70% assuming you either appear in person or have a telephone/video hearing. The success rate is considerably less for paper based hearings at around 5-8%.
