I would like an idea of how long people are waiting? I got my letter on Tuesday and entered the details that day. When I was on the phone last Friday, the lady told me I was approved and will get a later soon (which I did on Tuesday just gone) and I would be paid on the 23rd. I've seen people who entered theirs weeks ago and since haven't gotten a payment.

Which is it? These items were requested in the initial information pack becuase I distinctly remember contacing the school to obtain a letter of attendance.

AppleBottle wrote: » Yep, that is for the year and paid in 9 installments from October to June.

And now I'm getting €116 a month when my circumstances are worse than last year? Edit: I realize I'm not entitled to the first instalment from last year but this is cut a lot more than that.
