What Phoenix permit statuses mean
- Application Received / Submitted
- The application has been filed and is waiting for intake review. Nothing is approved yet, and work may not begin.
- In Review / Plan Review
- City staff are checking the plans against building codes and zoning rules. Most permits spend the bulk of their timeline in this stage.
- Corrections Required
- Reviewers found issues the applicant has to fix and resubmit. The review clock pauses until corrected plans come back to the city.
- Issued / Approved
- The permit has been granted and work may legally begin, subject to the required inspections along the way.
- Inspections
- Work is underway and city inspectors are signing off stage by stage — foundation, framing, electrical, and so on.
- Finaled / Closed
- Every inspection passed and the permit is complete. If you're buying or refinancing a property, this is the status you want to see.
- Expired / Revoked
- The permit lapsed before the work finished, or the city withdrew it. Work done under an expired permit usually needs a new permit to legalize.
