How to find if the Disavow Tool Submission was Processed?

[shopbloc]

We completed a Disavow Link Tool submission in 1/25. How can you tell if Google has looked at it, approved it or processed it?

Thank you!

Hi Tamra,

After you have submitted your txt with the disavow tool, Google should send you an email once they've reconsidered your appeal to remove all the bad link.  Google' never gives you an exact number of days it takes them to do things, but most of the time it is based on the number of bad links you have and etc.

I found a YouMoz article and Duke Tanson waited for 38 days before he received Google's email.  Furthermore, even after they removed the links, it will still take time before their system updates to reflect your new status.

Check out the screenshot he attached at the bottom of his article.

Hope this helps.

I did not receive a message under my "Google Wembaster Tools" account for the Disavow Tool submission.

I noticed the screenshot you referenced was for a Reconsideration Request. I wasn't interested in sending a reconsideration request just yet and wanted to get the Disavow Link tool processed first. This is why I wanted to learn how to tell if the disavow tool submission was successful or processed. I would then send a reconsideration request. I had already submitted both at the same time once before only to get it declined. So made some adjustments and want to wait to send the reconsideration request this go around until the disavow link tool was successfully processed.
