Fine-tuning job - Waiting status since hours

Hello,

I am trying to create fine-tuning jobs with gpt-4.1, gpt-4o base models.

After validation of training and evaluation files, the fine-tuning job is getting stuck in “Waiting“ for hours. (Job status that I can see - Files validated, moving job to queued state)

I am trying since yesterday (5PM IST, 25 Sep 2025). And the status still remains the same.

Do we know why this is happening.

Thanks.

bro i am stuck with same prblm have you got any solution

the same guys
4.1 tunning 25 hours and still waiting

so it took ~40 hours. Dont be afraid of waiting mates

I just waited over 22 hours, cancelled the job because I thought it was stuck, and started a new one. Now I see this post and my blood is boiling…

Whoever in OpenAI allowed waiting times of 20+ hours and didn’t put any warning about this deserves a medal.
