    Hi,

    Some areas have huge backlogs so expect anything from 9 months to about 1 year, longer in some areas. It's certainly not a fast process. Good luck.
    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.

    Good luck with your appeal.

    I have waited 18 months I'm a full time wheelchair user suffer from epilepsy and ptsd from the army I have supporting letters from my ot pip say I can walk 200 metres even though I have a spinal cord injury it's ludicrous if I was a drug user that lost a leg I would be first in the queue I've been told it could be next year before I hear anything back
