Hi DTS, I have 4 notarytool submissions all stuck in "In Progress" with no movement for 12+ hours. 'xcrun notarytool log <id›' returns "Submission log is not yet available" for all of them - they don't appear to have been processed at all. Team Identifier: NS22D2XK8A

1 .dmg submission at 2026-05-12T01:35Z (12+ hours stuck)
1. dmg submissions between 10:04Z and 12:12Z

This is my first time notarizing with this Team ID - possibly the new-account first-submission "in-depth analysis" delay? The DMG passes every standard check:

Signed with Developer ID Application (Team NS22D2XK8A)
Hardened runtime on all 6 embedded binaries (codesign flags 0x10000)
Full authority chain: Developer ID App → Developer ID CA → Apple Root CA
Secure timestamp present
Entitlements: allow-jit, allow-unsigned-executable-memory, disable-library-validation, network.client, network.server, files.user-selected. read-write
codesign --verify -deep --strict passes cleanly
spctl source = "Developer ID Application" (correct)
DMG itself signed inside-out per TN2206

I have read the other recent "stuck In Progress" threads from new Developer IDs - same pattern. Could the queue be unblocked, or is there a team-side configuration that needs flipping? Happy to provide submission UUIDs + filenames privately via Feedback Assistant or DM. Thanks!

You’ve probably seen my standard response to this, but I’ve included it below just in case other folks stumble across this thread.

Could the queue be unblocked

The queue is not blocked. (When something actually goes wrong with notary, the forums light up like a Christmas tree.)

or is there a team-side configuration that needs flipping?

It’s not that simple.

I can’t offer detailed insight into the “in-depth analysis” case, but my experience, based on talking with many developers here on the forums, is that it usually clears in a day or two.

You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for in-depth analysis and may take longer to complete. As you notarise your apps, the system will learn how to recognise them, and you should see fewer delays.

For lots of additional info about notarisation, see Notarisation Resources. Specifically, it links to a Q&A with the notary service team that’s quite instructive.
