Any Update on OSAP Yet?
Has anyone had their program costs entered onto their OSAP application yet?? Or received the amount of funding they will be getting??

I mailed my consent forms in and have been checking the website regularly... Still nothing!

Nothing on my side either. I was trying to find when I actually got my entitlement but couldn't find the exact date. But I think it was in the beginning of August...

I submitted my OSAP, and I know it has to go through review etc, but how accurate is the estimate it gave me after having submitted it?

Based on the estimate I was given last year, it was pretty close within a few hundred dollars... I don't really know what the deal with this year's application will be...

Mine says it's waiting for my signatures as well as my income verification. They have to verify that I have a 0$ income... How hard can that be? I deposited my signatures in the dropbox on Wednesday so I'll probably wait until this Wednesday before I ask if they received it.

Yeah, they have to verify my income information as well. I just hope they get it done quick since I had so many problems with OSAP last year, didn't get it until late October.

Lmao.

You guys actually think OSAP is slow? You're out of your minds. My dad's been waiting 2 years for his passport.

Ya it says the same thing for me as well.

Also I sent in my signature pages last week on Wed. and it disappeared from the "Things to do" list on OSAP's website yesterday so I guess it went through fairly quickly.

Mine disappeared today as well and I dropped it off on Wednesday too. Still need that Income Verification though.
