I have uploaded a bunch of AI Generated Images. It has been more than 3 months and the files have not yet been reviewed.
No one can predict how long it will take; it depends on how many other assets have been submitted by the tens of thousands of active Contributors, what the backlog is, what the asset type is, and how many Moderators are working. There's nothing you can do to hasten the process. Be patient.

We have no way of influencing the reviewers. The current time can be up to 2 months after submission. The upload date is not relevant.

Uploaded or submitted? The time you get shown is the upload time, not the submission time. You can upload now, submit a month later, and the timer starts at one month.

Hi @Jee Stock ,
We have no idea how long. The ribbon across the top of your contributor page should say up to 8 weeks. I have file category that used to review within a week waiting for more than one month. As a matter of fact, it has been several business days since none of my files get reviewed. I assume the staff is busy with processing the free assets.
Best wishes
Jacquelin.

Hey Jill_C,

Hey Abambo!
I have made submissions and the files are under the review category. How long will reviewing take?
By @Jee Stock
Yes, you submitted, but the 3 months time is based on the upload, and not submission time. Upload and submission can be different, even months away. Unfortunately they say submitted, and not uploaded, as it should be.
There were confirmed reports that from time to time submissions get stuck in the queue, meaning that they were not forwarded to the moderators. In that case you have two choices: contacting contributor support or deleting and submitting again. If you do the latter, be sure to note the titles and keywords, as they get deleted too, and you can't have that back.

The average wait time for a photo is now about 2.5 months. My previous average (four months ago) was about 20 days. Everything has become much more complicated.

That is the contrary to what we all experience. Last year was much more difficult, as the waiting time increased daily.

I understand. I'm here only for 4 months or some. So for me - it was 20 days 4 months ago and 60-65 days now.

It is very difficult to find a pattern in a four-month time frame, as there are many things that influence that, including seasonal effects.
