New app stuck in "Waiting for Review" since Sep 12 resubmission (originally submitted Aug 31, expedited once already)

Hi all,

Looking for insight on whether others are seeing similar delays right now.

Timeline for this app (first submission, new developer account):

  • Aug 31: Initial submission, status "Waiting for Review"
  • The submission sat in "Waiting for Review" for ~12 days with no movement
  • Requested an expedited review — it was picked up and moved to "In Review"
  • Rejected for a server-side issue (not a metadata issue). I responded in Resolution Center explaining the fix, then resubmitted on Sep 12
  • Since Sep 12, the app has been back in "Waiting for Review" and has not moved to "In Review" again

It's now been several days since resubmission with no update. Given the app was already expedited once and rejected for a fixable server-side issue (already explained and resolved), I'd expect it to move faster on resubmission, but it's sitting exactly like a fresh submission.

Has anyone experienced a resubmission after an expedited-review rejection get stuck like this? Trying to figure out if this is a broader queue issue (I've seen similar posts referencing September slowdowns) or something specific to my submission that I should look into.

Any recent experiences appreciated.
