PIP TRIBUNAL

Bignig

Hi everyone.
I had my PIP renewal rejected from July this year, so I applied for mandatory reconsideration. This week I had the outcome and surprise surprise that too has been rejected. I have now applied for a tribunal hearing. Just wondering what sort of time scale I should expect and also is there much chance of success through tribunal.
Thank you all.

Hi @Bignig. I'm not sure of timescales as I'm currently waiting for my renewal decision which started in April! I went to tribunal when I first applied and was awarded it. No-one can say whether you'll be successful or not, but I would always recommend going to tribunal if you need to. I found the process much better as there were people with medical knowledge and I could do it via video call from home with my husband next to me.

tribunal normally is a very lengthy process. However, normally Tribunal success rate is 70 per cent.. while with MR success is about 20 per cent. nothing bad to go for tribunal

You could wait up to one year for a Tribunal, but it is worth doing it as there are qualified people in attendance and success rates are good!
