Hi Faisal, I haven't heard anything official, either. But there are good signs. This fall, Microsoft released a brand new version of Microsoft Outlook for Mac, available to Office 365 subscribers. That version of Outlook appears to be very accessible (e.g. the ribbon, reading and sending messages, and many other areas of the program are working great). If the next version of Microsoft Office is designed with as much accessibility in mind, it could turn out to be very usable.
I'll point out that in my opinion, there is some accessibility built into the Microsoft Office mobile apps for iOS but in many areas it is still lacking. For example, in Word, I know of no way to create or edit tables.

I ask this because as far as far as I know, accessibility is not forthcoming as there is no indication of this. Although the IOS apps are accessible, that is still no proof that it will become accessibility on the Mac. A perfect example of this is the official twitter app and twitterific amongst others. > On Dec 19, 2014, at 11:12 AM, christopher hallsworth > <challswor...@icloud.com> wrote: > > Not yet, but it is expected that Office 2015 will be accessible just like the > individual apps for iOS.
