Some have been taking up to 2 weeks! If it is being checked manually it takes longer

I don't understand, for the cost, why anyone would apply for an ESTA with a Week or less to go?
It's $21. Not a big loss. If you get denied, however...

Yes you’re preaching to the converted
I always do this and advise everyone this but that won’t help nephew now if I say I told you so Trying to find out if taking longer so I can advise him and help Also it’s not a holiday Flight only to see American girl friend He already had a valid esta but going for longer so he thought he d best renew :/

Oh dear; his ESTA only needed to be valid on the day he landed in the US (tomorrow); didn’t matter that it expired whilst he was there!
I hope it gets approved soon for him 🤞 |

As already mentioned, the ESTA only needs to be valid for when he arrives in the USA. It doesn't need to be valid for the whole stay.
Just to check - he can only stay in the USA for up to 90 days with an ESTA. Hopefully, he's not thinking of staying longer than 3 months?
