  • How long does it take for Facebook to delete a group?

  • Ranging from a few days to a few months. However, Facebook does not have a specific timeframe for the review process. Some say they only need to wait a few days, but others have to wait up to a month (or even longer). [11] X Research Source
  • How to track the progress of Facebook?

  • You can check the status of the report at any time through the support mailbox. If you’re not sure if Facebook has seen the report, go to the support inbox and tap the report. Here you will see if Facebook has reviewed the report, and choose to cancel the report if you like. [12] X Research Source

    • Unfortunately, you cannot report the group more than once if you have already submitted a report. However, you can report multiple posts in the group to help Facebook review them faster.
