  Your domain ccffnew.org expired on August 3. We sent several email warnings both before and shortly after it expired.

  Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 90 days. You can learn more about expired domains here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/

  The good news is that we are still able to recover your domain, as it is currently in the Redemption period: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/#redemption-period

  A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by our domain partner and is not one which we can waive. That’s in addition to your annual domain renewal from us, so the total is going to be $98. However, you just purchased a plan which includes a free domain, so we can waive that $18.

  I have sent a payment request for the total of $80 to the email address on your account. Once the payment is sent, please reply here to let us know, and we will send a note to our domain partner regarding ccffnew.org. This process only takes about 2-3 days start to finish.

  Payment has been made. Any chance this will go faster than 90 days?

  Payment has been made.

  Payment received, and I have contacted our registrar partner.

  We’ll let you know as soon as the domain has been recovered.

  Any chance this will go faster than 90 days?

  Yes, as mentioned, “This process only takes about 2-3 days start to finish.” :)

  Once we have the domain, next steps will be to connect it to our design site correct? Then we should be “live” again?

  Once the domain is restored, it should operate exactly as it did before it expired. :)
