Hi dc,
Welcome to Benefits and Work
Yes, it can take up to a fortnight from receipt of your MR request for the DWP to scan it onto their systems.
You should not expect to receive written confirmation of receipt of your MR request.
If you have proof of delivery, you could contact them for an update 2-3 weeks after receipt.
As Gordon states, the whole MR process can take up to around 15 weeks.
In case you haven't already done so, you might wish to read through our :
ESA MR/Appeals Guidance.
See also : Mandatory Reconsiderations Explained.
&
Disability Rights UK Factsheet - Appeals and Mandatory Reconsiderations.
