Hi, I'm new here so apologies if I'm doing this wrong!! I'm living in Gloucestershire (south west england) and am waiting for a tribunal date. I have waited 27 weeks so far. Does anyone know what the current waiting time is please? When I requested a tribunal back in October I was told the current wait then was approx 20 weeks! Many thanks

    Hi Mike, yes i did have a representative apparently he  is the only one who deals in the Manchester area now, but he is very good.
    My appeal date was 1st May he told me not to go because of health reasons and he was going to ask for it to be adjourned.
    The panel had read my papers before he went in, as soon has he went in they told him i should never have been taken off pip in the first place so i won my case.
    Today DWP rang me and said my money including backpay would be in my account in a few days
