If a person's records were shared with the temple over two years ago and the ordinances are still not showing as completed, can we request and do them ourselves?

Is there a way to find out if they have already been done but not recorded?

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    Nothing secretive about it ...

    Short Answers: 'Yes'; and, 'Yes.

    For "Temple' Work that is "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System" ... Can we request and do them ourselves?

    'Yes', you can, in fact, just about ANY (Member) User/Patron CAN "Request" the "Reservation" for "Temple" Work that has been "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System".

    You can simply, "Unshare" from the "Temple" System; and, then, "Request" that yourself.

    Or, possibly, just, "Request", that "Temple' Work", that you had already "Share[d] with the 'Temple' System".

    Here are some "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch";

    Can I reserve an ordinance that has been shared with the temple?

    How long does it take for the temple to complete shared names?

    What happens to ordinances when I share them with the temple?

    How do I unshare family names with the temple?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-unshare-family-names-with-the-temple

    And ...

    For "Temple" Work that has been "Completed ... "Is there a way to find out if they have already been done but not recorded?"

    I shared family names. Do the completed ordinances appear on my completed ordinances list?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/i-shared-family-names-do-the-completed-ordinances-appear-on-my-completed-ordinances-list

    I hope this helps, somewhat.
