Network Extension URL Filter registration pending review for more than a month

Hello,

I am writing about a Network Extension URL Filter configuration submitted through the Identity & Trust section of the CloudKit Console on 5 September 2026

Status shown: In Review / Waiting for Approval Last Modified: 5 September 2026 (unchanged since submission)

It has now been 37 days with no response — no approval, no rejection, and no request for changes. The PIR server , Privacy Pass issuer and HTTP/2 OHTTP gateway have been live and serving since the day of submission, configured per the Onboarding.md guidance in Apple's PIR service example, including the apple-url-filter DNS TXT record on the service URL and the url-filter-test validation entry.

Could anyone please let me know:

  1. Whether this configuration is actually in a review queue, and the expected timeframe;
  2. Whether anything further is required from our side — if so, we will act on it the same day.

The URL filter is a core protection feature of our app, which is currently in App Store review; the feature stays disabled for users until this registration is approved, so the delay is holding up what we can ship.

Thank you for your help.

Hmmmm, I think that things might’ve ‘crossed in the mail’. What does your CloudKit Console status show now?
