Sadly the wait is very long for a hearing, my wife's been waiting 31 weeks and she was told last week that the average waiting time is now 34-35 weeks.
As an example, if she does have to wait for the full 35 weeks then that would be 41 weeks in total, she had her PIP stopped 6 weeks before the appeal was logged by the Tribunals Service.
The sheer volume of appeals proves that the assessment criteria from the DWP is woefully broken. -
Well said

Just received my appeal.papers just been checking them and dwp have ask the tribunal to dismiss the appeal wot the hell do thy think thy are to go in there favour it's making me very stressful. And very angry.I'm ready to go to this appeal
-
Good on you the DWP will always try and dismiss us if they assessed everyone properly in the first place we would not have all this stress.

@vijay
It is standard practice for DWP to ask Tribunal to dismiss the appeal. It is rare for a Tribunal to do so as DWP's arguments for dismissal usually are so weak, no grounds to speak of. -
I have been stressed out with appeal waiting so I decided to ring appeals court and go from here I was very surprised. To b told by very nice lady 8 weeks.or telephone call as it said I would go anytime I said very surprised she said herself yes this is now thinking is it because I will in out and know decision now maybe should not have rang up.
