    Anything up to 6 months for a decision. You'll likely need an assessment too because most people have them.

    From completing form, to receiving reward text, with assessment in-between, nine weeks in total, but that does not seem to be most peoples experience, good luck

    HI I applied in mid October, I received a text stating they had sent the report to the decision maker at the end of December I'm still waiting the decision :)

    Good luck, I know mine seems to be really speedy from application to award,but not everyone is as lucky.
