Hello, I created my YouTube channel in 2016, but I’ve noticed that my watch hours and view counts are not updating correctly. According to the latest update, the requirement for shorts monetization is now 10 million views, but my dashboard still shows the old 3 million requirement. Similarly, my 4,000 watch hours haven't updated as expected.

I don’t know if this is a system glitch or if it takes time to refresh, but I need urgent clarification. Has anyone else experienced this? How long does it take for the system to update? YouTube Support, please fix this issue or provide a clear answer as soon as possible!
