Hi everyone,

I recently submitted my application for the Apple Developer Program (as an individual / organization) and completed the payment/verification process.

I was wondering what the current average wait time is for account approval? It has been 5 days so far, and the status is still pending. But the profile section it said it might take 48 hours.

If anyone has recently gone through the enrollment process, how long did it take for your account to be approved? Any insights or advice on whether I should reach out to Developer Support would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

It's true that it might take 48 hours. Might take 4.8 months too.

There's no way to estimate these things. I see many similar posts on the forums. They're always the same - "We've done everything and heard nothing!"

In some cases, there is a cryptic reply from Apple saying to check their e-mail. Then the OP states that they finally submitted the required documentation.

Me too. I guess Apple is struggling because they're understaffed and have too many rules.
