I’ve been advised that the SUSI appeal to which the Deputy refers was recently received by the statutory independent Student Grants Appeals Board. Under the Student Support Act 2011, the Board has 60 days from the making of an appeal, to make a determination.

I understand that the 60 day appeal period will end on 19 April 2018. Subject to no issues arising, the student can expect a determination on or before 19 April.
