USVI COVID test requirements

I'm wondering if anyone can comment on how quickly they process submissions, and if anyone has had a test rejected and what your options are at that point? The test I'm looking to submit is from the state's testing program, and while it meets all the requirements (e.g. PCR and CLIA-accredited lab), the way the results are provided makes me worried that USVI might reject it.

Thanks in advance.

We got same day turn around from the USVI portal back on Feb 26.
I don’t recall the exact format used for submitting the test results. It was a file upload to the USVI portal, I think in PDF format.

Yeah, I did a fake entry to get to that point and they ask for a file upload. In my case it would be a print-out of a web page showing the test results. Fingers crossed.....

In case anyone is wondering my results were accepted. I uploaded them in the morning and the approval came in overnight.

Great news.

In February, our approval was within minutes of uploading the test results.

Yes, thanks for reporting back. I have a trip next month to USVI and was wondering the same.

Long shot, but has anyone had a test taken outside of the US accepted by the USVI?

Yes. It was the antigen test taken here: https://www.vectorhealth.ca/
They call it the US travel test. I was tested on April 29. Approved within minutes. Traveled next day.
