Can you please let me know what is causing the delay in my net metering application? It has been several months since the application was submitted by Tesla.

Good morning,
Tier 2 applications are placed in queue to be reviewed once the payment is updated if the application was submitted prior to payment receipt; otherwise, it would be from the date the application was submitted.
The application was submitted October 4th; however, the payment for the tier 2 interconnection fee was updated December 14th. Applications are being processed in the order in which they were received.
Thank you and have a great rest of your day!
FPL Net Metering team
Tesla said they submitted the payment in October, but FP&L says they got the payment on December 14.
So I reached out to Tesla, and this is what they said:
Hi Eric,
With regards to FPL: A check was mailed back in October 30th. However, I have seen multiple cases where it takes around 2-3 weeks for the check to arrive at FPL's facility. Additionally, I have consistently seen that after the check is delivered, that i can take about another 3 weeks for FPL to process the payment and update the portal to reflect payment has been made.
Now that FPL's portal is updated, they will review the application further and once approved, they will order a bidirectional meter.
Seeing as they've already processed the payment, we should have an update on the net metering application within a week or two.

So as Tesla says, at least it looks like everything is finally in the queue and they will get to it someday.
