Invalidity Pension apply

Antony2

Hi everyone, I applied for invalidity pension in November, just before christmas they sent me 2 forms, one for the GP and one for me, which I sent back complete with medical documentation , now on the MYgovid.ie page the writing appears: Application under review. Your application is now being reviewed by an officer.

How long do you think I will have to wait for a response? Thank you for everyone can help on this

Send a message on mygov or call them.Long enough of a wait.On a go slow unnecessarily since covid re-opening

They are much faster than they used to be.

November applications should be dealt with mid Feb to mid march for obvious refusals and approvals.

Some cases need further scrutiny and take an additional 4 weeks.

Ring them and ask - quite easy to deal with.

Just beware that if a GP or consultant thinks you can return to the workforce within 12 months, they will refuse
