If it's the Mandatory Reconsideration you've requested then it's 2-12 weeks. If it's Tribunal then it's 11-16 weeks for the hearing, which you should attend. Paper based hearings for Tribunal have a very low success rate.

the problem with the tribunal would be because of my wifes condition she would not be able to attend..this would cause great distress, trauma..does her now getting pip and myself being her carer bolster our chances of winning an appeal0

At the moment, hearings are still taking place through telephone. Whether this will change in the near future, i don't know.A PIP award makes no difference here and neither does being her carer. They will want her to speak for herself.0

ok..she may speak for herself on the phone somewhat with myself representing her..but she will never sit before a bunch of strangers in an interview..on a side note have you heard of anyone being successful with a pip claim who has long covid0

PIP isn't about a diagnosis, it's how those conditions affect you against the 12 activities.
