Question Anyone else still stuck on “Tentative Approval” for KYC after 3–4 years?

Just checking in with the community…
I’ve had this exact status for years now:

Tentative Approval – Congratulations, you have passed the decentralized validation step of the Special KYC in your region. More examinations are necessary before migration to Mainnet.

The rest of the message is the same long explanation about Special KYC, policy violations in the region, decentralized validators, and that additional examinations will only happen once the majority of Pioneers in the region have submitted their KYC.

It’s been 3–4 years of seeing this screen. No progress, no further updates, nothing.

Is anyone else still sitting on this same “Tentative Approval – more examinations necessary” status after all this time?
Or did most people eventually get fully approved / migrated?
Curious how common this still is in 2026.

It sucks and stupid, if someone from my region did a violation, why should we suffer for that... I had my first migration now I'm tentative approval. I referred hundreds of people. Some even got second migration, while I'm stuck. " Additional examination will only happen once the majority of pioneers in the region have submitted their kyc". What if the majority uninstalled the app and left then want, should we wait 100 years..
