it no longer states payments will be sent within 30 days, but approx 30 days.

They should update the payment history page I guess. 'We will mail you a check for your account balance within 30 days of the end of every calendar month'

Those without payment approvals, last month they did tell publishers a small number were being delayed.

I can't be certain, since I and every webmaster I know personally who was affected, complained, but did google actually send the 'encountered an issue' email to people who didn't complain directly? Curious on that.

there can be other reasons for no payments

None of those apply to myself, save 'sometimes payments get held because they are doing extra checks for a variety of internal reasons.'

No contact problems, they have promptly mailed me on issues not concerning payment. I did receive their email a little over two weeks ago where they said they anticipated being able to send the cheque within two weeks. Not putting it past them to tack on another similar email, but truly, it's a bit frustrating to see another round of payments go through a system they claimed to have encountered an issue with. No offense to the lucky folk being paid, just would prefer a slightly more transparent program.

March not approved
April not approved

No letter from G.

This is a problem, and it is not just "you wait guys", no!
Now Google owes us XXXXX dollars, no payment for over 2 months, AND if Google finally decides not to pay for whatever reason, then it will mean that they just cheated us. Who would compensate money that I WOULD earn if I would use TF or CJ, or else during these two months?

March and April not yet approved here.
Had the " issue with our system" email unprompted on May 5 stating check would be "sent within" two weeks. NOTHING YET, owed mid $XXX

Waiting patiently, should probably write them I guess.

Today, May 20, I read "Payment approved" for April earnings. I'm an Italian publisher.
I'll see how much time will need to have the "real" money!

Sorry: in the title I was wrong, it's April earnings, not March.

It can take several weeks to process a check (after it arrives) if its in foreign currency i.e. dollars to euros or whatever.

I had to wait 6 weeks for the bank to process a check from USD to GBP. It may be quicker in Italy.

12 days after you give it in the bank here in belgium.

After 2 checks it goes faster here because they establish a certain confidence :)

Thats a long time, I had mine through in about 5 days and that was recently as well!

Might it be faster if you used a U.S. bank with a branch in your country?

My April was approved today. For those not keeping score, my March payment was delayed, then it was approved on May 11th, and now April was approved on May 20th. Still waiting on that May 11th (March) check to show up in the mail, though... :)

My march payment was also delayed. I was approved on the 11th also for the march payment. I received my march check yesterday (18th). I was also approved for my april earnings today(20th). I hope this late payment thing does not happen again......ever.

Yep, looks like we also received a combined check approval. Now looking forward to receive the actual check. It's rather big, so I hope it won't be lost.

How long do you think I can expect to wait. I'm on the west coast in the U.S.

Thanks,

Well I lost at poker night, but Google finally approved my March and April earnings, as one approval.

Cheers to everyone who put up with me over the last few weeks ;)

No approval for April here. It is the first time I am getting paid so I hope I will get paid in time.

Is there anyone else here with no approval for April? I am from the Netherlands, however I don't think my country/location actually matters for Adsense payments.

Do you think I should send an email to Google? I don;t know how long it takes for a check to travel to the Netherlands. Are they going to make it in time?

I am also waiting on april payment approval. April was also my first month.. Perhaps new publishers get looked at closer?
