What is the normal processing time for appeal applications?

The normal processing time for appeal applications is typically in the range of 90-120 days. This timeframe allows the reviewing bodies to thoroughly assess the submitted appeal, gather any necessary documentation, and conduct any required investigations. The process often involves multiple steps, including reviewing prior decisions, assessing the validity of the appeal, and possibly holding hearings or soliciting responses from various involved parties. Therefore, the 90-120 day window reflects the standard operational procedures and management of caseloads that ensure fair and comprehensive evaluations of appeals.

In contrast, the shorter options may not provide sufficient time to properly evaluate the complexities that can arise in appeal cases, while the longest option of 180 days encompasses a timeframe that may be beyond what is typical for most appeal processes.
