I am afraid there is too much variation in the system for us to give you anything close to an accurate idea, at one extreme claims are taking only a few weeks and at the other as long as nine or ten months if not longer.
I believe that the DWP will acknowledge receipt of the PIP2 form.
The biggest delay is in the assessment process, it could be weeks or many months.
