What should you do after sending your first YQ message for confirmation?

Waiting ten minutes for urgent requests or one hour for routine requests is the appropriate course of action because it allows necessary time for the recipient to process the message and respond adequately. This timeframe balances the urgency of immediate requests with the understanding that routine requests may require more time for confirmation. By implementing this protocol, you ensure that you are not overwhelming the communication channel and giving the agency a fair chance to reply while still maintaining the efficiency of urgent communications.

In contrast, waiting one hour for any response could lead to unnecessary delays in urgent scenarios, while re-sending the YQ message immediately may cause confusion or redundancy in communication. Contacting the agency after just five minutes could also disrupt workflow and is likely to be considered impatient, which is why the established wait times are encouraged.
