Is PIN link generated instantly?

I just hit $50 today and i dont see any PIN link generated. I was wondering whether the link is generated instantly when i hit $50 or must i wait awhile ?

 

It's not just a link, they send you a piece of paper to the registered address with the pin code on it you then enter. It won't show until roughly when they send the pin.

 

You mean i should get the letter before i see anything on my account ?

 

Sort of. It probably won't show until they sent it.

 

So the "Please enter your pin link" is after they sent out the letter ?

Yeah, that's what I said, twice.

I was just saying that it will probably be 'around' when they send it. So don't hold it against me if it shows a day before you get the letter.

 

Ok thanks. Patiently waiting for the greeting email!

 

Snail mail, not email.

 

2-3weeks from today ?

 

Who knows... I don't have a clue whether you live in Turkmanistan, Mars, New York or wherever so just wait... And then wait some more. Things will happen automatically. Also read the AdSense FAQ on the topic. Then wait some more again. And more... In the meanwhile, rather than asking the same questions, keep plugging away at your sites.

 

I got the "Your payments are currently on hold" notice today!

 

it will 2-3 weeks... in many cases sorry to say but it dont come in 1st request... just hope for the best... and wait for the letter

 

What's your hurry? Give the system a chance to notify you. You just hit $50 today for gosh sake.

 

It normally takes 2-4 weeks depending upon your location and you will receive it by govt postal service of your country. It is just a white post card folded in half with your address on it and details in it(no envelops)
