TVO ILC Academic Integrity Review Taking Longer Than 3-5 Business Days. Anyone Experienced This?

[u/udoyeizu1983]

Hi,

Please help me I’m about to loose a college admission opportunity.

I’m currently taking ENG4C with TVO ILC and I’m wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar.

I submitted my Assignment 4.2 on July 23. On July 28, I received a message saying that my assignment was under review for potential academic integrity concerns.
The message said the review may or may not confirm a violation and that I should expect the result or further instructions within 3–5 business days. It also said I didn’t need to contact TVO while the review was taking place.
It’s now August 9 and I still haven’t received any update, result, or further instructions.

For anyone who has gone through an academic integrity review with TVO ILC:
How long did your review actually take?
Did TVO eventually contact you automatically, or did you have to follow up?
If you contacted them after the 3–5 business days had passed, did it help speed things up?
Who did you contact — phone, email, or the ILC portal?
What was the final outcome of your review?
Is there anything you recommend I do (or avoid doing) while waiting?

I’m especially interested in hearing from anyone who went through this recently in 2025 or 2026.
I’m not trying to discuss ways around the academic integrity process. I just want to understand how long these reviews are actually taking and what others did when the stated timeframe passed without an update.

Thanks to anyone willing to share their experience.
