New Deadline for submission

Hi Amazon Team,

I have registered for this hackathon on DevPost; however, I haven't finished and submitted my project according to the last deadline. Am I still able to submit on Apr 22? Beside DevPost, is there any official website for registration for this hackathon

    You are still eligible to submit. You must also registered for AWS Educate if you're not already a member. https://aws.amazon.com/education/awseducate/apply/ Let us know if you run into any issues and good luck! We can wait to see what you build.

    Thank for your reply. If I submit after the initial deadline:
    - I cannot compete for Grand Prize, all Best prize categories (Learning Skills, Student Life, Community skills). Is it right?
    - How long does it take for me to pass the certification process to publish my Alexa skils?
    - Is it competition available for international students, who are currently studying inside and living in the U.S?

    Hey Son!

    Thank for your reply. If I submit after the initial deadline: 
- I cannot compete for Grand Prize, all Best prize categories (Learning Skills, Student Life, Community skills). Is it right? 
     
    A: You can still win the Honorable Mentions and/or Participation Prizes.

    - How long does it take for me to pass the certification process to publish my Alexa skils? 
     
    A: There isn't a set amount of time, but the certification team typically asks for 3-5 days to review. If there are no issues, it will be certified. If they find a problem, the certification team will let you know what needs to be fixed in order to resubmit.
    
- Is it competition available for international students, who are currently studying inside and living in the U.S?
     
    A: you are eligible (yay!!) but if you are no longer a resident of the U.S. when prize shipments go out, you they may have to forfeit the prize.

    Let me know if you have any other questions! I’ll keep an eye out for your submission!
