Switch from Individual to Organization Membership

Hi there, How long does it take to make a switch from Apple individual to organization membership? I initiated the process a 2 weeks ago, and I am get to receive another notification from Apple. Keeps showing We’re processing your membership migration from an individual to an organization. And I am unable to submit an application that requires Organization account.

As my AppleCare agent told me, an "undefined" amount of time. I was told these legal entity changes to accounts can take so long, because they are sent to a legal team for review. At some point, you'll receive an email to complete an account transfer agreement. For me personally, for an organization-to-organization transfer, took around 1 month and 1 week before I was able to complete this process.

Either of you find a way to speed this up? I am at 9 days since initiating the process.

I am unable to even distribute my mac app outside of the app store, or develop on my iPhone.

If I knew it would be this bad I would have just signed up for a new account entirely.

Going to try and call first thing on Monday.

This is so frustrating, guys. My account has been on hold for over two months, and I am still waiting for someone to reply. I've called a support number, but they told me they have nothing to do with the department that reviews apps. I haven't been able to release new updates for months, and it's just been a rollercoaster with Apple.

Apple, I would appreciate your urgent assistance if you're reading this. Here is my app:

iPhone: https://apps.apple.com/ng/app/afanotes-focus-balance/id6475352113

Website: https://www.afanotes.com

Unfortunately, this same process with Google took me only two days and was very easy and seamless.

I have been waiting for over three months. I reapplied over a week ago before finding this forum. My app has been able to push updates for over a year and now all of a sudden they won't push them through on my individual account, but they haven't changed me to an organization. Frustrating...

Dear Apple Developer Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to follow up on my request for converting my account from Individual to Organization, which I submitted on October 22, 2024. At that time, I was informed that the review process would be completed within one business day. However, as of today, October 28, 2024, my account is still showing as Individual.

Could you please provide me with an update on the status of this conversion? Specifically, I would appreciate it if you could let me know by what date I can expect this change to be completed. If you require any further information or documentation from my side to facilitate this process, please do not hesitate to ask.

@AppleDevSupport I’ve been waiting for a response to my case for converting my developer account from Individual to Organization 102413176597,102419347823,102441438430,102443809414and 102443806446. I haven’t received an update for over a week. Please help.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
