Now that YouTube are more current with their processing of their Partner Program applications, we’re finding that some channels don’t cut the mustard.

Not only have YouTube raised the eligibility requirements for applying for the program (1000 subscribers and 4000 hours of watch-time in the past 12 months), but some creators were rudely awakened to the fact that approval was not a foregone conclusion. In fact, some creators are now receiving an email regarding their declined application.
