I believe that the “in progress” on Gateway simply means, the recommender checked the request sent to them via email.

Once you put their email in, the status will show as “request sent”.
Once they check that email from Gateway and log into the platform to access the form, the status will show “in progress”.

Because we had one teacher’s status showed as “in progress”, but she updated us along the way that she already started answering a couple questions and feedback, but she would like to go over it one more time before submitting it.

For the other teacher, we only saw “request sent” for almost a month, but she confirmed with us that she got the email but didn’t access the platform yet (at that time).

The “In progress”, only means that at least the recommender acknowledge the request sent by Gateway and access the form (at least once), but doesn’t really tell how far along in the process he/she is.
