Gosh what is going on with ESTA

[gonekho1]

Applied for my third ESTA all my previous ones 2018 & 2022 approved within minutes.

This one is pending now with their “new” application questions. Asking me for a point of contact etc.. luckily I have family in Texas so I put their details.

Husband applies and his is also in the same boat but, got approved within minutes in 2022. 10.0.0.0.1 192.168.1.254

Anyone else going through the same problem?

I’m in the same boat! Applied for my ESTA recently and it’s still pending, even though previous ones were approved instantly. It seems like the new questions are causing delays for many people. Hopefully, it gets sorted soon. For now, I’d recommend just waiting a bit longer and keeping an eye on your email for updates. It’s likely just a system issue or extra processing time.
