As long as you have submitted your electronic Commonwealth Assistance Form (eCAF – See: Applying for FEE-HELP), with a validated Tax File Number, it will be approved and you may receive a loan approval letter shortly after from the government.
FEE-HELP will not require any additional approval after you submit your eCAF request. See also: Commonwealth Assistance Notice (CAN)
If there were any concerns about your eligibility for FEE-HELP we would contact your before sending your eCAF invite. See also: Eligibility for FEE-HELP
Important: eCAF submission is mandatory for eligible domestic students applying for FEE-HELP loans. Failure to submit an eCAF by the Census Date will default the student to upfront fee payment, making the student responsible for tuition costs direct to the institution. Please note that this does not apply to international students.
