  Hello,

  1. Are you logged into the correct account at wordpress.com when you attempt to do this? Are you the verified owner of the site? https://sundragonlady4ever.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php

  2. Do you have jetpack installed on your .org site. http://jetpack.me/support/subscriptions/transferring-followers/

  If you still have trouble, please flag a moderator. It is recommended that you subscribe to this topic if you have not already done so as it may take time for a staff member to address your issue.

  If you would like to bring anything to the attention of the moderators or staff, please simply add the “modlook” tag followed by a second tag with your reason. For example, “modlook, spammer [username]”

  Yes. I’m logged into my correct wp.com account abs have my sundragonlady.com wp.org site linked with jetpack enabled. I’ve had this issue before.

  When i select my .com site to migrate the few followers to my wp.org site, it tells me i need to be the owner. All sites belong to me.

  I don’t see the followers on my http://sundragonlady.com/ page.

  They seem to still be on my https://sundragonlady4ever.wordpress.com/

  How long does the migration take?

  That is very odd!

  Okay, I have run the migration again. Please let me know if it worked this time.
