Why hasn't Adsense paid me yet?

An Adsense newbie, I've done everything properly regarding Adsense on a relatively new blog (no more than 3 ads per page, no clicking your own ads, etc. etc. ....).

I reached my $100 threshold sometime in mid-November. There is a $190 balance currently, but it was at $128 at the end of November.

I have completed the 5 step process of verifying my bank account, reporting the micro deposit they put in your bank account, putting in your routing number, and all of that; that part is all set and it's set up for a direct deposit.

I have read on the Adsense site that payments are dished out on the 21st of the following month (that would be December). But I've also read on the Adsense site that they'll issue payment "sometime toward the end of the following month" (which is still December).

Is there a particular time I should expect a payment, or am I doing something wrong? Or does Adsense just "forget" sometimes?

Thanks for any guidance anybody can offer!

    Hey man don't worry.

    If you reached the threshold in November you'll get paid at the end of this month. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow up to the 26th potentially.

    You'll receive an email when it's complete. There is no set date for when you get paid, it hovers around in the 20th's of each month. So just sit tight and wait for an confirmation email.

    Also, if you're using a direct debit, don't expect it to be instant. Sometimes it can take about 3 days for your bank to process it. So don't worry if you check your balance right away and it's not there!

    Hope this helped.

    Payments are processed between 22 and 28th of the month. If your earnings have reached $100 by the end of November, they will paid. Earnings of December will be paid next month (in January) if they touch $100. There isn't a fixed day. Expect for the payment to be issued between 22 to 28.

    You'll most likely get your first check within the next week. Keep in mind, If your check is being delivered via snail mail this is a busy time of year for the post office.

    Hey, thanks fitnesschamp, rehmat, yukon. Being a newb, I didn't know if I was putting all this effort in and Adsense wouldn't pay off or not. I'll just hang tight and once it comes, I'll feel more comfortable investing time into writing articles in the future, knowing I'll generate revenue.

    Thanks for taking the time to respond!

      As long as you have an active Adsense account & +$100 you can pretty much bet Google will pay out.

    I got mine on the 23rd this month and usually get paid on the 23rd. Sometimes, it's a day or two late or even early.

    Did you get a PIN from Adsense?
