Took about a 1-2 weeks to process, but expect a longer wait as the days pass because most people apply around this time.

It says that my Income Verification is still under review. Should I be worried about this?

You don't need to do anything for income verification. You sign that form when you pick up OSAP. If you don't get OSAP then you'll have to contact SFAS.

Mine said that for a while too, and eventually got processed. Just be patient and it should come through soon.

As for the Confirmation of Enrollment form, we do all that stuff in like the first week of September, usually starts during Welcome Week.

If you haven't sent in your declaration pages yet, then you can give them a note along with those. I'm not sure how exactly the note should be formatted, so you should contact SFAS about that.

If you have sent in your declaration pages then I have no idea how to let them know, so you would have to contact SFAS.

In either case, I'm sure it's not that important. But it would be wise to contact SFAS to see if you actually need to do anything.

Hey guys quick question,
I know that we have to mail the signature pages (both for you and your parents) but when I was looking over the last "review and submit" page, at the bottom for required documentation it said a copy of the page that had your parents 150 and 435 numbers. We're supposed to mail that in to Mac as well?
I don't remember it being there the last three years and my application was processed fine before.

Not everyone has to send in supplementary documentation, it's most likely because they don't have documentation so they have to get you to send them information in order to confirm.

How do I know when OSAP has received my signature pages? And how do I know when I'm approved etc

1. It'll disappear from your OSAP status. You'll also get an e-mail.

2. Usually when 1 happens, it'll also show your estimate. If not, you'll also get an e-mail. You pretty much get an e-mail every time your OSAP status changes.
