You have an outstanding discount request

Hi everyone,

I keep getting this error after submitting my application. Every time I submit the application, an error occurs immediately。I’m stuck and hope you can help and resolve this issue.

There was an error creating the discount request. Errors: Discount request could not be created. Discount request errors: You have an outstanding discount request for @123xing-ai. We will get back to you soon.

Hi @123xing-ai,

This specific error ("You have an outstanding discount request") occurs because you have likely already submitted an application, and it is currently pending review. The system blocks any new attempts to prevent duplicate submissions while the first one is being processed.

Here are the steps to resolve this:

1. Stop Re-applying: Please do not try to submit the form again. Repeated attempts will simply trigger this error loop.

2. Check Your Status: Visit your GitHub Education Dashboard. If you see a "Pending" status, it means your application is safe and in the queue.

3. Wait for Review: The verification process usually takes between 3 to 14 days. You will receive an email notification once a decision is made.

4. Contact Support (If Stuck): If your application has been pending for more than 15-20 days, or if the dashboard shows no application but you are still blocked, you should open a ticket with GitHub Education Support to manually clear the stuck request.

For now, the best action is to wait for the current request to be processed. Hope this helps!
