Ccj being satisfied help?

i had a few problems a few years ago with losing my wife to cancer and received a ccj i got my credit file last month and i paid it straight away. i then received the letter of satisfaction from the dvla and sent it to the court involved does anyone know how long this process takes for the court to update the cra's resulting in my credit file saying that the ccj is fully satisfied?

thanks in advance

    Sorry to hear about your loss. While you are waiting, this might help.

    There are 3 organisations in this chain. Court informs --> Registry Trust informs --> CRA.

    From Experian (for example) see:

    I have paid a judgment but it does not show as paid on my report. Why?

    How do I remove a paid judgment from my report?
    If you have paid a judgment you should contact the relevant county court. They will arrange for the record to be updated and we should be told within two weeks. If you want proof that the judgment is satisfied you can ask for a Certificate of Satisfaction, or if you paid within one calendar month, a Certificate of Cancellation. Be sure to include the official fee of £15 payable to HMCS. Once the court is aware that a judgment is paid, Registry Trust will amend their records and tell all the credit reference agencies (Equifax, Callcredit, and Experian) about the change.

    You may be able to speed up the process by sending us the original certificate straight away. We cannot update our records from a fax or photocopy but we will return any original documentation to you.

    Satisfied judgments are retained for six years from the date of the judgment. Judgments that have been paid within one calendar month will be removed from our records.
