Hello,
I’m currently in the process of app notarization, but my status is stuck in the "In Process" state, and I’m unsure how long this should take. I’d appreciate any advice or insights.
Issue Description
After submitting my app for notarization, the status has been stuck in "In Process" for an extended period.
There seems to be no progress, and it’s taking longer than I expected for the process to complete.
The status hasn’t changed, and it’s been 5 days since I submitted the app.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How long does the notarization process usually take? Any advice on how to resolve this or if there’s something I might be missing?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Notarization
I'm submitting a native macOS app (Swift/SwiftUI, arm64) that includes Sparkle.framework for auto-updates. All binaries are signed with a Developer ID Application certificate using --options runtime and --timestamp.
I've submitted 12+ times over the past two days, both from local notarytool submit and from GitHub Actions CI. Every submission uploads successfully and returns a valid submission ID, but then stays at "In Progress" indefinitely — none have resolved to Accepted or Invalid.
Two early submissions did eventually come back "Invalid" — Apple's rejection log showed the Sparkle nested binaries had ad-hoc signatures (they were being signed as individual Mach-O files instead of bundle directories). I fixed this with proper inside-out bundle signing. Since the fix, local codesign --verify --deep --strict passes cleanly, but all ~10 subsequent submissions remain stuck at "In Progress".

Would appreciate any guidance, or if someone from the notary team could check our queue. Happy to provide specific submission IDs.
