Looking at the dates of this order, and where my orders are, give an idea how orders with April (or newer) Research & ID dates are hitting a brick wall to get to Grading and beyond. CoachDave33's order took 8 months to go from Grading to Shipped. If that holds true with my 3 orders below, that means those orders may finish by end of June 2022. I'm expecting them back closer to end of July, early August, as I expect continued slowdown as PSA gets deeper into the remaining backlog.
my value moderns (3 orders all with same dates)

My orders got entered/researched&ID 18 days later than CoachDave33's order. His order hit Grading 28 days later where my order took 6+ months to get to Grading.
We really have no concept how many cards arrived at PSA each and every day between mid-February to the end of April (people had until March 30th to submit the online submission forms and then 30 days to get the cards to PSA). Turner said that in one particular day in March, they got over 660,000 cards. Those 660,000 cards will for sure stall all the cards behind them (and make those orders' owners feel like PSA is sitting around and doing nothing but processing Express, Regular and Economy orders they've recently accepted). I do believe though that PSA will stay true to their word on devoting 80% of their resources towards the backlog.
