How long do we have to wait for GP assignments?

No, they couldn't, since the Russian FauxGP did not have any international skaters - just Russians, therefore it's a Russian domestic series.They could declare the Russians ineligible since the Russian Fake Prix wasn't ISU sanctioned
Additionally, Valieva wasn't under suspension by Rusada this fall - the provisional suspension for the doping violation lasted exactly one day, back in February, and it was the lifting of that suspension that allowed her to compete in the Women's competition during the Olympics.
So, none of the other Russian skaters, nor Valieva for that matter, are going to get in trouble for her competing in their fauxGP, nor will they get in trouble for any other domestic competitions in which she participates while the CAS appeal on Rusada's non-action is undecided.
