"awaiting your approval" vs "awaiting for your approval"

If something is ready for you to approve, then it is "awaiting your approval."

Last Updated: March 20, 2019

awaiting your approval

This is correct

Use this phrase to tell people that an item is ready for their review.

This phrase should only be used when approval can reasonably be expected. In other situations, use "awaiting your review."

Some examples from our editors:

  • The final draft of the quarterly report is awaiting your approval.
  • We're awaiting your approval of the changes to the procedure.
  • The materials for the new ad campaign are awaiting your approval.

Some alternatives from our editors:

  • waiting for your approval
  • awaiting your review
  • ready for your approval
  • ready for your review

awaiting for your approval

This is not correct. Don't use this phrase.

There's no need to use "for" in "awaiting your approval."

"Awaiting" means "waiting for," so adding a "for" to the the phrase is repetitive.

"Awaiting your approval" or "waiting for your approval" would be correct.
