When does the Microsoft Rewards Team reach out to winners typically?

Think they reach out to the winners within a week of the sweepstakes/giveaway ending.

Depends on what sweepstakes you're talking about. If you mean Microsoft Rewards, they reach out to the winners within a week of a sweepstakes drawing typically.

They typically reach out to the winners within 1 week of the drawing and then post a winner's list about a month later.

Hi and thanks for reaching out. I hope you’re doing well. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you and I'll be happy to help you.

I believe the reward may be forfeited if the winner of the sweepstakes on Microsoft Rewards does not check their email or comply with the requirements to redeem the prize. In rare circumstances, if the initial winner does not claim their prize within a specific amount of time, the sweepstakes sponsor may decide to designate an alternate winner. The rules and timelines for alternate winner selection may vary depending on the specific sweepstakes and the sponsor's policies.

For further clarification, I also recommend contacting Microsoft Rewards Support through this link; https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/supportrequ....

If you mean the one through Microsoft Rewards, then yes. They typically contact winners within a week of the drawing. So if you haven't heard anything by now, you're not a winner. The current status says it is pending confirmation of eligibility which means they've been in contact with the winner and are waiting for paperwork and such.
