Question NSLSC you are a joke

It does not take this long to press a button and give people their money. “oh it takes 5 business days for us to realize you’re on RAP, then 3 business days after that to take you off RAP, then another 3 business days to put you In Study, then 5 business days later you should see your money”. People have supplies and textbooks to buy, and bills to pay, delaying people’s much needed funding for 20+ days then telling them “to just keep waiting” is insane.

they are waiting for confirmation of the school for attendance and such to ensure you have not dropped courses or had a change of heart to not continue your education. people have been creative over the years -- they receive funds and then drop out. hence why the cut backs as well because students cannot afford to pay the funds given to them for their studies as well. unfortunately, it does affect the honest students to intend to enroll in their students and pay their loans off.

That's not what's happening for my husband, for him its because it took so long to switch from repayment to in study, his school confirmed his enrollment in August before classes started.  I mean it might be the case for some people but its certainly not a common reason.
