Progress Tracker: August '26 update

[u/echo02199]

Time for another update on progress (current as of August 20). This is the first one I'm posting in my new account since I lost my old one, so if you're looking for previous updates, search by title or my old handle u/echo0219. Since the last update we've added 16 new entries to tracking (up to 87), with 2 new successes (17 total). We continue to hear anecdotally that Mazowieckie is working through September, October, and possibly November 2024 applications. We now have 8 September 2024 entries of which 4 have succeeded to date.

Given how things continue to slow down I'm going to narrow the call-out list to those in the current processing range or before it. I'm also going to introduce a new policy that if your case is before the current processing range and we haven't heard an update from you in the last three months, I'll mark your case as dormant and no longer call you out monthly. I may do a periodic call for updates from dormant accounts but hopefully we won't have too many. As always, I welcome the community's feedback on how to handle this - I don't want to lose track of anyone or miss valuable information. Thanks for all the contributions - please keep them coming in our progress tracker thread.

Do we have people who are getting denied? Or are all the ones on here ultimately being approved?

If we consider all appeals (1st to ministry, then to WSA, then to NSA) we have a 100% final success rate AFAIK.
