For the majority of planning applications, the relevant time scale is six months from the date on the decision notice or, where the local authority have not determined the application in time, six months from the expiry of the period which the local authority had to determine the application.
In the case of householder applications, the relevant time frame is generally twelve weeks from the date on the decision notice to appeal.
In the case of advertisement applications, the appeal deadline is usually eight weeks from the date on the decision notice or, where the local authority have not determined the application in time, eight weeks from the expiry of the period which the local authority had to determine the application.
