The 'application in progress' status means the appointment has not been successfully scheduled yet and is still in queue. This could be due to either a large number of applicants currently queuing for the test or system maintenance. In most cases, it's caused by excessive test appointment demand. The queuing sequence is calculated based on the passing time of the previous subject test. Candidates just need to wait patiently, and they will receive an official SMS notification from Traffic Management 12123 once the appointment is successfully scheduled. When Subject 2 status changes from 'under review' to 'application in progress', it indicates the system has reached the candidate's turn in the appointment queue. The system is currently arranging the schedule, and the appointment will be successfully scheduled upon completion of this process. After scheduling, candidates will receive an SMS notification and should attend the test as instructed. Generally, the status change from 'under review' to 'application in progress' means the candidate has successfully secured an appointment. However, each test session has a fixed quota. According to regulations, when multiple candidates tie for the last available spot (e.g., if there are 40 slots and several candidates qualify as the 40th), the system will randomly select among them. For driver's license tests, after submitting an appointment application, candidates typically see 'under review' status first. When their turn comes and the system starts scheduling, it changes to 'application in progress'. Upon successful scheduling, it shows 'appointment confirmed'. Successful applicants can click the 'Test Appointment' function in Traffic Management 12123 app, which will redirect to the booking homepage for test center selection, and they'll also receive an SMS notification.
