Re: How long does it take to verify QSL Application

LoTW applications are usually done in a few days. Paper cards for DXCC have been taking two to three weeks. VUCC has been taking two months lately because of all the submissions from the summer E skip season.
Some guys might impose limits on card checking at events, but I did a pile of about 350 cards as Dayton last spring. I don’t think applications submitted at these events get preferential treatment, but someone at HQ would have to confirm that.

While QSL checks at ARRL HQ take about a month, how long does it take if everything is in LoTW?
For field checking at sanctioned events, does the QSL process speed up and are there any limitations to the use of field checking for VUCC, DXCC, WAS or WAC?

So the answer, Jerry, is that QSL checks by HQ take about a month - at the moment.
Doubtless it varies across the year (e.g. busier at new year), with extraordinary events (such as Covid) and with postal delays (a fact of life for those of us who choose to live in Back of Beyond).
