For recovery the status gets reflected in your account as soon as the qualifying nights/stay are posted. As you might know, this happens usually next day if nothing goes wrong.
I do not think this is accurate. Status does not happen "next day", it happens when the qualifying stay is posted to the SPG members account.

That could be several days depending on when the stay was process and how often SPGs proprietary systems do a system sweep.
