    How did you find out your delcaration was lost? On phone?

    I have had this problem twice now and sent them an internal message saying "Hi, I have sent my declaration form 2 weeks ago and was wondering when my status would be updated".

    Both times, a couple of hours later the status mysteriously changed.... try that.

    Try:

    100 Bothwell Street
    Glasgow
    G2 7JD

    As this is the alternative to PO Box although the PO Box is likely to go to the Printing office. I would send it to the PO Box as the mail is seperated to make sure it gets processed as quickly as possible. You have remember that all students will be sending these declarations in so the occassional one may go missing unfortunately.

    Yep this year when it happened for a second time they sent me another declaration form to sign, which I just ignored because by that time they had updated my status.

    And Contact Us thing disappears every now again, I assume because of high demand.

    Brians Daughter - The evidence would have been seperated from the form during mail sorting. The form may still be awaiting scanning due to the loads at this time of year. You could send another but it will also be in the pile awaiting scanning. Until the scanning is complete then the system will not be updated.

    Hi thansk for the info, student finance did say the same yesterday more or less except that returned declarations are taking max 10 days, so considering they have had mine months they have suggested re sending.which i have done today!
