I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program on February 3, 2026. The payment was completed successfully at the time of enrollment, but my membership status has remained “Pending” since then.

So far:

No request for additional documents or identity verification

No phone call from Apple

No follow-up email other than the payment confirmation

Apple Developer Support has been contacted, but no response yet

I understand that verification can take some time, but the complete lack of communication is concerning, especially since this is blocking active development and release planning.

If this is a known backlog or system-wide delay, some transparency from Apple would help. I’d also appreciate hearing whether others who enrolled in early February are seeing the same prolonged “Pending” state.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can share recent experiences or escalation paths.

I applied February 1. And I've been an Apple developer for 15 years but I had to apply under my new company. I've never had this bad of an experience. Many people have been waiting weeks, some of them months with no communication. And if you look through some of the rare Apple replies in this forum, they literally say they do not watch this forum. Awful experience so far. Not the way I remember it at all.

I applied in August 2025 and called approx every other week for about 4 months. I was told the same thing every time - you just have to wait. Finally, I was told that I would likely be approced "next week" instead, I was rejected and no explanation. No one to talk to. I have done everything imaginable, no one is helping at all and it's having a big effect on our nonprofit.
