Order processing is taking long

I ordered a Iphone 11 last Nov. 17. Today is Dec. 02 and it is still processing, when can I expect it to change from processing to preparing to ship?

We do not work for Apple, we are just other users here, so we have no access to accounts, order processing, or shipping. Right now there are worldwide shortages and huge shipping delays, so you can expect it to take longer. If Apple gave you an arrival date, the process will change to shipping about 2 - 3 days before that.

As far as I know, this usually depends on the available carrier in your area. You may reach out to Apple Support to know the exact reason why it's taking that long.
