I've been verified for about two weeks now but there are no release dates next to the school nor have i received any secondaries. Is this normal or should I contact AACOMAS?
 
It is normal. They will release your app. a few days after verification.

I have a question:
When you modify your AACOMAS application AFTER it's been verified, and then hit the "submit" button, will your application have to be verified again?
 
I believe, you do not have to submit again if you are simply changing your ECs, work, biographic info. You only have to submit again if you add a school. And no, you do not have to be re-verified unless your coursework changes.
 
And to the OP, I am not sure that is normal. It can't hurt to call or email AACOMAS and they are really kind and helpful so it won't be a painful experience.
 
I copied my application from last year, and added only one new school with only one new course grade. I submitted the application Sept 22 (2 weeks ago) and it still says processing. Anybody have an idea if this is normal. Last year I was verified in 2 days...although I applied very late (January).

It took me several weeks to get verified and that was earlier in July. Once verified, it only takes a few days to be released.
 
Borrow - Yes, this is unusual. Call AACOMAS for confirmation that they recieved everything and ask what is going on. You can send them an email too... they reply relatively quickly... usually at most within 24 hours.

Phoenix - If I'm not mistaken, the applications are released on Tuesdays to schools... so any update you make (say on Friday) will be released again to schools on Tuesday in an update. If you're already verified and make changes to the application, you don't have to wait another 4 weeks. They'll just send the updates you made to the school the following Tuesday.

Choppo - Verification usually takes about 4-5 weeks... it might be down a little since the bulk of applicants have already applied. Maybe 3-4 weeks now? Just sit tight. 🙂
