How long does it take for LSAC to deny/approve my fee waiver Forum

[notaznguy]

I applied for a fee waiver and was immediately conditionally approved. All I needed to do was send in my documents. I mailed them on the morning of December 31st. It is now January 9th and my file is still on hold and pending under further review. How long does this process take?

Also, if I am conditionally approved, does this mean I essentially qualify for the fee waiver? Assuming that the information I entered was correct?

Conditionally approved means you qualify for a fee waiver (provided the info entered was correct).

I think it took about 2 weeks after submitting documentation for it to update.

It varies. Mine took a few days. As this person already said, its conditionally approved.

I know this doesn't help the OP, but for anybody else who is reading I didn't mail my documents, I faxed them, and it took them about 4 days to give me a final approval even tough their standard phone answer is it can take up to 2 weeks.

I faxed mine as well. I got the email within a few days.
