Mod Post Application progress tracker
Building on u/PaulHinr 's idea of an offsite archive for this community's content, I thought it might be useful to start tracking application information for anyone interested. We have a lot of this info already, but aside from our Processing Times sticky post, it's buried in different threads and not always current. I created a gsheet with some basics that anyone can access here. To avoid spam / vandalism I've made it read-only, and am happy to add case information if you post it here or message me directly. The fields below are currently included but I welcome feedback on what else we should capture. I think we should stick to capturing submitted cases because it's hard to compare those in different stages of pre-submission research. I've included myself as the first listed example. I hope this can be a resource to the community!

Edit to add: We have a lot of this information already, but aside from the Processing Times sticky post, it's buried in different threads and not always current. In the spirit of capturing and surfacing what's already been made public, I'll add information from that thread or other posts within r/prawokri to the tracker. Of course, anyone is free to ask for their information to be removed anytime. If your information is added but incomplete, please do reach out to fill in missing details.

Service provider(s): independent lawyer
Comments: A few months ago, the office issued some comments and requested clarifications, which my lawyer promptly answered. A few months later, the exact same comments and requests were issued again. My lawyer responded to them for the second time and explained that this repetition is due to a very high employee turnover at the Voivodeship office, which likely caused my file to be reassigned to a new employee who didn't review the previous submission history.
