When do Student Loan Lenders Report Debt Forgiveness to Credit Bureaus?

I finally received the note that my student loan of $395,000 was forgiven - a loan amount that ballooned from $95,000 because of a Sallie Mae error that I fought for years to correct. Anyway I received notice that they are now forgiven in full but i'm wondering when does Mohella report this information to the credit bureaus. I see the last time they reported information was 3 months ago.

when I called nelnet and asked them to report an updated balance, they updated the balance not too long after alongside a dispute comment, it should be the end of the month, but perhaps give them a call and ask them to report

Has your balance been updated with CRAs? How did it affect your score?
