# How to Unstake Your GLMR
How to unstake your GLMR tokens!
{% hint style="info" %}
You must wait \~7 days AFTER completing the unstaking transaction before you can redeem your GLMR tokens. This period is set by the Moonbeam protocol itself and is not something set by Nova Wallet.
GLMR which is undergoing the unstaking process does NOT earn any staking rewards.
{% endhint %}
When you stake tokens on Moonbeam you agree to have your tokens "locked" in staking for 7 days.
When you wish to unstake your tokens, you must wait for the entire duration of the Unstaking/Unboding Period to expire before you can redeem your tokens.
### Step 1: Unstaking Process
1. Open the Nova Wallet application.
2. `Select` the **Staking** **screen**.
3. `Select` your staking position, in this case, would be **Moonbeam** **GLMR**.
4. From the **Moonbeam** **staking** **screen** `select` **Unstake**.
5. `Input` the amount of GLMR tokens that you wish to unstake and then `select` **Continue**.
6. Review all the contextual information including any associated fees and `select` **Confirm**.
**You have now started the 7-day unstaking process. You must wait 7 days before you can redeem your GLMR tokens.**
**You are able to cancel the unstaking process at any time from the Moonbeam staking screen.**
### Step 2: Redemption Process
1. Open the Nova Wallet application.
2. `Select` the **Staking** **screen**.
3. `Select` your staking position, in this case, would be **Moonbeam** **GLMR**.
4. From the **Moonbeam** **staking** **screen** `select` **Redeem**.
5. Review all of the contextual information including any associated fees and `select` **Confirm**.
You will now receive the amount of GLMR that you previously chose to unstake.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/staking/moonbeam-glmr-staking/how-to-unstake-your-glmr.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
