Hi @owlbunt ,

Sometimes it takes a bit longer to get your benefits, even after approval. If it’s been 6 days, try these steps:

• Make sure you’re logged into the right account.
• Check your email (including spam/junk) for any updates.
• If you still haven't received anything, reach out to GitHub support for help.

Hi @owlbunt ,

The waiting time may vary depending on different factors, such as the volume of requests; it usually takes a few days, but sometimes it can take a little longer, even a couple of weeks.

When the benefits become available, the status label will turn purple and change to:

• Congrats! Your request for @owlbunt was approved and your benefits are now available.

For further reference you can look at these discussions:
#132790 , #131665 , #132470 , #133531, #134279, #135849, #136887, #138721, #139268, #140287, #145640, #145995

And also the Student Developer Pack Application FAQs :

• How long after I submit my application will it be approved?
• How long after I’ve been approved will I receive my academic benefits?
