# Cancel a previous unstaking action

### **Track the withdrawal time**

After successfully unstaking your tokens, you must wait for the unstaking process to finish before withdrawing the funds.

The unstaking period varies depending on each token and network you've previously staked on.
{% endhint %}

**Step 1**: Open the SubWallet extension and choose the "**Earning**" tab at the bottom of the screen. In the Your earning positions screen, select the funds you've previously unstaked.
