Hi! Sounds like exactly the same situation, and it's reassuring to know we're not alone.
No update on our side yet. Still "Waiting for Review" since October 10, with no new messages from App Review.
I called Apple Developer Support on October 15. The agent could only see what we see in App Store Connect, but she confirmed our expedited review request is still active and said nothing looked wrong with the account. Her guess was that the extra "Information Needed" step for new accounts makes the review take longer.
So it really does look like it's hitting a lot of first-time developers right now. I'll post here as soon as anything changes, and I'd appreciate the same from you. Good luck with StoneEcho!
