I and some others in this thread emailed EA_Sanah two weeks ago and she added it to the bug report.
I wound up removing the "busy" Sim and now this is happening again with another Sim
I just send Sanah a follow-up email so hopefully, something gets done soon!

I’ve had to remove 7 sims now that were ready to open retirement chests because they were stuck being busy. They all had the good upbringing trait. I’ve had to use so many tickets for makeovers so I can get my Izzy outfits back from the removed sims through a makeover.

Wow 7 sims this happened in your game to!! That is so sad 😞. Where those sims on different lots or living on the same lot?

Different lots. I’ve tried moving them around to prevent it because I thought it was only happening at one lot, but it doesn’t seem to matter. I’m scared to move any to passive that are close to retiring in fear of losing them. I also don’t have any families established now that would help make more with the good upbringing trait. So discouraging. Especially when we spend so much real money in the game.

They really need to fix this and compensate us because people are losing a lot.
Now all of a sudden, one of my Sims careers isn't showing up.
It shows up for everyone except for the Sim that has that career

One of my passive Sims cannot be made playable because it says Sim is busy. My Sim, Magdalena Soledad, was in a hangout with a non active Sim which ended but both Sims are still registering as busy. I made Magdalena passive to correct the issue but when I did, the system says Sim is busy and cannot be made playable.

Hi Sanah
I have lost a sim who was passive and I could not make her playable. She was removed by accident and when I called her over she was old. I did not get an heirloom for her, but I would rather get her back. This is really stressful where I haven’t really been playing the game since I lost her. Is there any way I can get help with this matter?
