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.

ps Did you only recently join the Apple Developer Program? My experience is that delays like this are more common with new teams. If that’s the case, my advice is that you wait a few more days. If this issue hasn’t cleared by Friday, update this thread and I’ll dig deeper.
