    I am not connected with FamilySearch

    I have read that batches expire midnight GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) on the expiry date, so if you are in the USA, depending on your time zone, that could be much earlier in the day. Once the expiry time has been reached, I don't think it would matter if you are actually working on a batch. Perhaps someone will advise you otherwise if what I have written is incorrect.

    It dropped the batch at 8:56 pm mountain daylight time USA. Greenwich time would be 7 hours ahead of us so 4am, doesn't add up, but makes sense a world wide expiration would be need. Thanks for the response, Brent White

    Another possibility is that the project was pulled for some reason. That does happen on occasion.
