Hello,
I am a new macOS developer. I've been working on my first Mac application and I am trying to notarize it for distribution using notarytool. However, I've encountered a persistent issue where all my submissions are stuck in the "In Progress" status for several days.
As this is my first time going through this process, I initially thought I might have done something wrong. However, I have verified my app with codesign --verify --verbose --deep and it returns "valid on disk" and "satisfies its Designated Requirement". I have also tried bumping the version from 0.1.0 to 0.1.1 and removing spaces from the file names, but the new submission is also stuck.
Stuck Submission History (Total 4 submissions):
ID: 8cb4aebb-e2d5-4091-b279-18272c3a6ca9 (Created: 2026-04-03 - Latest)

As a first-time developer, it’s frustrating to see these initial submissions hang for so long without any logs or errors to troubleshoot. Is there any specific reason why a first-time submission for a new Mac app might be queued this long?
I would appreciate it if someone from Apple could help clear these stuck submissions or provide some guidance as to what might be causing this delay.
Thank you very much.
