I believe there are nearly 80,000 members of the IBA, if we consider that the majority of these, maybe 60,000 in the USA and that maybe 10% no longer actively ride, that would potentially leave 54,000 riders... of whom maybe 10% carry out rides every year.... so that would be over 5,000 certifiable rides per annum.....
There may be a wait, even if it is a long time, so patience may need to be exercised.
Is it SO important to get that piece of paper that you want to annoy folks on here by post bombing other folks threads, or could you simply email IBA admin, or even Mike Kneebone himself if you want to go up the food-chain to get a response?
So if there has been a long wait, take the correct route to enquire and take note of others on here who have already advised that there is a long delay in having your ride certified.
Please.
