@TeamYouTube is there a delay on YouTube partner applications? I’ve been waiting for my side channel to get accepted for over 2 months. I’ve sent multiple messages using the ‘Send Feedback’ and I’m not getting a reply.
Now that the backlog is cleared, we’ll be reviewing applications much more quickly! So long as you meet the eligibility and program thresholds, you can expect to hear back in a month or so. Note: all applications are still manually reviewed, so it does take a bit of time.
