All notarization submissions stuck "In Progress" — new individual account, 16 KB minimal reproducer also stuck 19+ hours

Team ID: U4TKZ5TH92 (individual enrollment, first-ever submissions)

Submissions (UTC): 2026-07-18 04:45:23 a186c59f-bf3b-4ac9-9780-248045a2eda9 Sentry-notarize.zip -> Invalid in ~5 minutes. Legitimate (unsigned nested binaries); fixed and verified with codesign before resubmitting. 2026-07-18 04:50:13 055e92dc-3a88-42bd-b2df-dc7c30c02443 Sentry-notarize.zip -> In Progress, 38+ hours, no log available 2026-07-18 22:34:41 7db6ada0-f3f8-4bf8-80e5-404e59425321 NotaryTest.zip (16 KB) -> In Progress, 19+ hours

The third submission is a deliberate minimal reproducer: a copy of /bin/echo inside a bare .app, Developer-ID signed with --options runtime --timestamp, a single Mach-O, no nested code, 16 KB total. It has now been In Progress for over 19 hours. A package that small cannot plausibly require extended analysis, which points to an account/team-level issue rather than package content.

Note the FIRST submission was processed and returned Invalid within about five minutes, so the notary service was working for this account earlier the same day. Something changed between 04:45 and 04:50 UTC.

Environment: Developer ID Application certificate valid (verified via security find-identity, G2 intermediate installed), notarytool credentials validated successfully via store-credentials, Developer ID Notary Service shows Available on the system status page.

One possibly relevant detail: I have a WITHDRAWN organization enrollment (9L795ANY7S) on the same Apple ID, withdrawn for a website-verification failure. Could that withdrawal affect notarization for my individual team U4TKZ5TH92?

Could someone check the backend notary queue status for team U4TKZ5TH92? Support case 102943331355 is open but has so far been routed to enrollment rather than notarization.

You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for additional 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.
