Award nomination update rejected?

I was nominated for a Best Children Short award at Indie Short Fest and I submitted the nomination on Sept. 16. The processing times page says the oldest unprocessed nominations  submission is from Sept. 19th, but I don't see the data on the film's page, the festival's or my name page. Does this mean my submission was rejected? I'm pretty sure I provided all the necessary inputs. This is regarding Contribution #190916-151902-387000. Thank you once again for all you do.

Hi Artie -

I can see that the award has since been approved and is listed on the site:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9272562/awards?ref_=tt_ql_op_1
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0739338/awards?ref_=nm_ql_2

Cheers!

Please read the post below. Since my issue is actually not resolved, would you mind removing the "Solved" status from this thread?  Thanks again. :D

Thank you for replying so quickly. I don't want to contradict you. Yes, it's confusingly similar,
 but this submission is regarding a Best Children Short nomination from:

Indie Short Fest https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0006099/2019/1

I imagine that you spotted the award I already had, Best Children Short from Independent Shorts Awards. Perhaps whoever rejected the submission was similarly confused, lol!

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Award nomination problem.

I apologize for reposting this problem, but since my previous post was incorrectly marked "Solved," I thought it would be best to start a new one. I was nominated for a Best Children Short award at Indie Short Fest ( https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0006099/2019/1 ) and I submitted the nomination on Sept. 16. The processing times page says the oldest unprocessed nomination submission is Sept. 19th, but I don't see the data on the film's page, the festival's or my name page. Does this mean my submission was rejected? I'm pretty sure I provided all the necessary inputs. This is regarding Contribution #190916-151902-387000.

An Official Rep thought that this nomination had been added to IMDb, but she was mistaken. No problem, it happens. Unfortunately this person marked my previous post in this matter "Solved" and has not returned, so I'm starting this new thread in the hopes of coming to a resolution of my issue. Posts from the previous thread are quoted below. Please note that I already have an award that looks similar to this nomination, but it's from a completely different festival.  Thank you.

Hi Artie -

Thanks for clarifying the confusion regarding the similarly titled events.  I have re-submitted the Award nomination for you and it's currently pending review.

Thanks again. I don't know whether this is in a queue to be reconsidered or where it stands as being Acknowledged. I appreciate any help we can get.

Hi Artie -

I just took a look at the recent re-submission and noted the error that was preventing the award from being approved.  In our initial submission form you were entering "August Award" as a new award, instead of selecting this existing award from the drop-down list.  Apologies, as when I re-submitted your award form as-is I didn't catch this.

The submissions were not approved because we cannot accept duplicate award names.  I have now properly re-submitted the award by selecting it from the list and it should be reviewed and approved shortly.

Thanks again for your patience!
