The deadline for Parliament to respond to the colonists' petition, specifically the Olive Branch Petition sent in July 1775, was never formally set. However, the British government effectively ignored the petition, and by the time it was rejected in October 1775, tensions had escalated significantly, leading to a breakdown in relations. The refusal to acknowledge the petition contributed to the growing calls for independence among the colonists.
