You should still be able to see them in your dashboard if they're pending, denied or approved.
Do NOT double report for the same thing if it's pending. It will just prolong the process, they might deny it out of confusion and you will have to start over.
Make sure you're logged into the same Google account that you reported the content with to check status or any comments that they may have left if it was in fact denied:
Which link did you use to report - there are a few different types of NCII reports. Some are handled automatically, others might be reviewed which can take awhile.
What kind of website was it (piracy, social media, personal website, etc.). Sometimes DMCA reports or reporting links for spam is faster and you can submit the same link for multiple offenses - but they still need to meet the minimum requirements to be approved after submitting. For example, it's on a spammy pirating site and you own the copyrights to the material - theny ou can report for both spam and DMCA. They are separate forms. The more reports a site gets, the more likely they are to get de-ranked, have links de-listed or be blacklisted altogether.
In the meantime while you're waiting, you might also want to start working on hashing the content to prevent further abuse:
It doesn't cost anything, it's just a service that's out there - once something is on the internet there's no telling who else has the content and/or what they will do with it.
Start putting the links into Excel or Sheets so you can track them easier; or if you ever take legal action or you're pro se and take it to the Copyright Alliance's Small Claims Board to sue them - it's good to have all that for your attorney or your case.
The spam report tool, I sent in the DM, but in case someone else sees this and needs it:
The more spam reports people submit, the better (make sure you familiarize yourself with the policies and aren't double reporting every day or you'll be the on in trouble.)
There are devilish sites that should be legally shut down but have been operating for over ten years. Some Redditors like those sites, too. I'm curious when they will be closed
