EF6 Lazy Loading not working for a navigation prop

I've got 2 new entities in an otherwise working app, I've trimmed unrelated properties (everything is marked virtual):

QuoteOverrideRequest

public virtual int RequestedById { get; set; }
public virtual int QuoteId { get; set; }
public virtual int StatusId { get; set; }

//nav properties
public virtual Customer RequestedBy { get; set; }
public virtual Quote Quote { get; set; }
public virtual QuoteOverrideRequestStatus Status { get; set; }

All 3 navigation properties are mapped the same way. When I create a new QuoteOverrideRequest and insert it, RequestedBy and Quote are auto populated with their entities. Status is not.

QuoteOverrideRequest request = new QuoteOverrideRequest();
request.QuoteId = quoteId;
request.RequestedById = _workContext.CurrentCustomer.Id;
request.StatusId = 1;

_quoteService.InsertOverrideRequest(request);

The insert function is calling a Repository that adds the object to a DbSet and calls the DbContext.SaveChanges()

I assume the problem is with QuoteOverrideRequestStatus because the other 2 classes lazy load correctly. If I get an instance of that Status earlier in the function, it will show up in the Status property after the insert.

The QuoteOverrideRequestStatus class has a public parameterless constructor and all of it's properties are virtual.

public partial class QuoteOverrideRequestStatus : BaseEntity
{
    public QuoteOverrideRequestStatus() { }

    public virtual string Name { get; set; }
    public virtual int DisplayOrder { get; set; }
}

BaseEntity has the Id property. I've confirmed that Lazy Loading and Proxy Generation are both true on the DbContext when all this runs.

new QuoteOverrideRequest()

This is not correct. Lazy loading won't work for properties of models you instantiate using the new keyword.

You should use db.Set<T>().Create() where db is your instance of DbContext and T is your model.

This will instantiate the correct proxy object of your model which will enable lazy-loading navigation properties.
