App stuck in "Waiting for Review" for 8+ days (Expedited Request submitted)

Hi everyone,

I am looking for some guidance on a delayed review for a new app launch. Our app, Vibe: Real-Time Social Radar (App ID: 6758596460), has been stuck in the "Waiting for Review" status since March 22nd.

Here is the context:

It is version 1.0.1.

Prior to March 22, we had removed our submission a few times to fix minor metadata issues before the review started. I understand this resets our place in the queue.

We have just submitted an Expedited Review request due to an upcoming launch deadline. My question: Does removing a submission multiple times trigger an automated "spam" hold or push the app into a longer Senior Review queue? Is there anything else I can do via App Store Connect to ensure the reviewer has what they need, or do I just need to wait for the Expedited Review team to respond?

Any insights from developers who have experienced a similar delay recently would be greatly appreciated!
