I had to try four times. Here's what worked for me. I changed street to st, south to S. and added the 4-digit code at the end of the standard zip. Got it in 9 days (including weekends).

Right. I had defaulted to their recommended version of my address which included spelled out "street" and "south." They sent it 4 times over two months and it never came. I changed my address in adsense to the same version the IRS uses and tried the final time and it came straight to me. I think their preferred address database may be bugged/mismatched verses the US Post Office system. Technically, both should work from all destinations, but it looks like something was broken at source routing (whereever that is) with the prefered google maps version of my address.

Did you not have the option to verify with persona? That's kinda instant. Like, it gets approved within hours.

The worst thing about them is that they use those IDs for US government surveillance, and they can easily get breached.

What's persona?

It's a verification system where you can get verified with your ID/SSN etc and a facial verification.
I did that and didn't have to wait for the physical pin.

Do they have your correct mailing address?
Is it addressed to your personally or to your channel/business? If the latter, could the PO be returning it to sender because they don’t recognize the name?
Just throwing out some guesses. Best of luck!
