How Long to get approved

I used Google Adsense quite successively about a year ago but because of studies I couldn't keep it going (live content) so I had to stop it. I recently signed up again on Wednesday 8th June but I have had no confirmation that my site has been aprooved. I'm just wondering because on the e-mail verification it said 2-3 days, but on the website when I login its says one week?

One to two days!
You will be notified by email!
This is what I have noticed with all my friends and myself!
Just wait for another 2 days before contacting them!

 

Ok then cheers, I suppose so.
Everything is set up though, the businesses need the specific sitesearch so i'm waiting for Google for a go ahead "hopefully"

 

Its been 2-3 weeks already. I e-mailed Google about it but they haven't done anything
What should I do ??

 

Since you mentioned you had a previous account, that might be a problem since you're allowed to run a single adsense account.

 

Did you try accessing your previous account? Unless you notified them that you wanted it disabled it should remain active.

 

Nah I tried but it had been shut down.I hope that it will go through soon, what are my other options here?

 

One to two days is usually enough to sigh up and get approved.

 

Write to google mentioning your previous id and circumstances, why you stopped using the account. Request them to activate the old ID and cancel the application for new ID. Just tell them the truth as you have written over here. I hope this will help you.

Best of Luck!

PS: Also, check your mail box in the junk folder for any mails from google.

 

I think it took atleast a week or 2 for my site to be approved back in jan or feb

 

it took exactly 2 days for me to get approved. so yea, email them again

 

they approved my application after 40 days. so you better wait more.
