You need to call the owner and get aggressive. This is her usual pattern. There is a reason that scheduling companies don’t want to work with her. Get paid and never work for her again.

Cirrus will pay once you demand and threaten them. It's never less than 2 months. Usually, it is only once payment is demanded. Best to start demanding now rather than later, or you'll be lucky to be paid in 6 months.

This is not a normal situation in mystery shopping. It's just that this company has a history and pattern,

I’m still waiting for them to approve my submitted report from 2 weeks ago. I emailed them asking how long it normally takes to get approved - no response yet. I guess I’ll just be patient & not take any new jobs from them for now.

You will be demanding payment in 6 months. Mark my words. Don't do any more. Waste of your time. You'll need to add in the unpaid time it takes to collect your fee.
