Most families receive a grant decision within 30 working days of applying (provided all the relevant info has been provided with the application form).&nbsp;However some applications will be much quicker, and some will take longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The length of time it takes for us to award a grant depends on a number of things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The number of applications we are dealing with.&nbsp;At certain times we receive very high volumes of applications, so it can take longer for us to work through them to make a grant decision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether you have applied to us before. If you have never applied to Family Fund before (or haven&rsquo;t applied for a long time) it can take us longer to process your grant because we have to consider your eligibility in more detail.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What you have requested.&nbsp;We have suppliers in place for a wide range of items, but if you are asking for something unusual, it can take us a bit longer to look at your request.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"use-our-online-application-tracker\">Use our online application tracker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The online application tracker allows you to see how your application is progressing.&nbsp;You can use the tracker to see:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>That your application has been received (we will also send you an email)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether we are waiting on some information from you before we can work on your application<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>That your application is in progress and we are considering it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The grant decision once we have made it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Some stages of the application take longer than others.&nbsp;For example, an application can spend a number of weeks &ldquo;in progress&rdquo; if we have a high volume of applications to deal with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find the status of your application has not moved since you last checked, that doesn&rsquo;t mean that something is wrong.
