KYB Friction with New Offshore Brokers

Starting to look at a few new offshore options for tighter spreads on some $EURUSD pairs, but the Know Your Business process has been a real bottleneck. I'm finding huge variations in how long it takes to get accounts verified, with some taking weeks even after submitting all required documentation. Is anyone else experiencing significant friction or delays with the KYB process, particularly when dealing with newer, less established brokers for crypto or forex?
