YouTube YPP suspension – earnings withheld. Anyone actually get them paid later?

Question / Problem

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to understand what really happens with withheld earnings after a YouTube Partner Program suspension.

Channel was removed from YPP due to reused content

In September (before the reused content issue), I earned from monetized videos.

Monetization was disabled later, after uploading one reused video.

In AdSense says “Earnings withheld following channel termination or suspension from the YouTube Partner Program (YPP).”

I can re-apply to YPP after 90 days

questions:, has anyone here actually received withheld earnings AFTER being re-accepted into YPP? Or is this money lost, even if the earnings were made before the policy violation?

Any firsthand experiences appreciated.
Thanks.
