i've been told by student room and it also states on the SF website, that once my parent's have filled in the household income form ONLINE, it can take up to 6 weeks for my application being processed.
However i have friends who received their notification of entitlement letters within a week of their parents filling in their household income form online. So why was this, that they received their notification of entitlement letter so quick, whereas sr and sf are saying it could take up to 6 weeks for my application to be processed?
could it just take a week for my application to be processed also?
im confused, thanks evryone.

It's a guide. Note it says "up to" and not will take 6 weeks".

will it take 'up to 6 weeks' every time to process my application, once my parent's send evidence( after sf have requested)?
thanks tiger rag

You might as well ask how long a piece of string is. No one can tell you. It depends how busy they are and whether they need any more information.

If the planets align and they spy the goats vertebrae in the cows intestine, you may get it back within 2 weeks.
Basically, SFE are the least consistent and most notoriously difficult and arbitrary bureaucracy you'll encounter, so don't expect anything from them and you'll only be occasionally disappointed.

Yeah they did however it was approved before it was sent, the same happened for one of my friends. I'm not sure if that was done on purpose or accidentally

i guess i could get my notification of entitlement within a week or two then. Wouudl you say Sf is busy during End of may/June or july? It'd be busiest during August i'd say, for SF applicaions that are last minute due to clearing.

Why is it so important you get it quickly anyway? You won't be starting till sept st the earliest and most haven't done any exams yet. The phrase "a watched pot never boils" comes to mind

It's fairly busy throughout the summer; keep in mind fewer people apply (successfully) through clearing than through the main allocation period, despite what the guardian might suggest. While its expanded a lot, most of the volume is going through yhe exam periods.
