Approval statuses for sites

Status	What it means
Requires review	Your site hasn't been checked yet. Click Request review to start the review process. 'Something went wrong. Please try again later' If you see this message, check that you've added the correct URL, then try again. If the message persists, your site or subdomain might not yet be eligible for AdSense. Please try again in the future. Or, your site is inactive and needs another review before it can show ads again. Learn how to request a review for an inactive site.
Needs attention	You need to fix some issues before your site is ready to show ads. Learn what to do if your new site isn't ready.
Getting ready	We're running some checks on your site. This usually takes a few days, but in some cases it can take two to four weeks. Note: Make sure that you don't remove your site and resubmit it because this can delay the process. We’ll notify you when your site is ready to show ads.
Ready	Your site is ready to show ads. Learn how to set up ads on your site. Note: Make sure that you follow the AdSense programme policies at all times to continue showing ads. You'll find detailed information about policy violations on your site in the Policy centre. Learn how to resolve policy violations in your Policy centre.

Ads.txt statuses for sites
