I know the general rule is to get secondaries in within two weeks. Unfortunately, due to COVID I was unemployed from my main job for most of quarantine. However, since I had a part time, low wage job that I was still able to work a couple days a week, I didn't qualify for unemployment and my funds quickly ran low. I've thankfully been able to start my main job again, but I'm having to work crazy hours to pay for secondaries. At this point I have a large number of secondaries in my inbox that I'm trying to work through, but it doesn't look like I will get the majority of them in within two weeks of receiving them. I will obviously get them in ASAP, but is this something that I should mention in my secondary as to how COVID has affected this cycle for me? I don't want to sound like I'm making an excuse for something that might not be a big deal (turning them in a couple weeks later expected). I have been very fortunate to be only burdened with financial stressors during this pandemic and I don't mean to undermine anyone's less fortunate experiences during this time.
