Hi,There's no timescales for any decisions. However, most MR decisions remain the same so you'll most likely have to take it to Tribunal. Only 18% of MR decisions change.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

Welcome to the community @shaneb245!
As Poppy said there isn't any set timescale. It's always worth giving them a ring to check on progress though.
Best of luck and do let us know how you get on.Community Manager
