The statute says
the &lt;em&gt;wojewoda&lt;/em&gt; — the voivode, the regional government office that decides your case — has
&lt;strong&gt;60 days&lt;/strong&gt;. The Mazowiecki office in Warsaw was reported in mid-2026 to be taking &lt;strong&gt;nine to
fourteen months&lt;/strong&gt;. The gap is not a rumour and it is not incompetence you can appeal against.
Since April 2022 a separate act has suspended the running of that 60-day term outright, which
means that for most of the wait you are not &amp;ldquo;past the deadline&amp;rdquo; in any sense the law
recognises.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
