Registration in Traces

I filed Q2 return in https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/. Now when I try to register at Traces as deductor, I'm getting the error message 

"Already registered on e-filing site.
Invalid Details could be because of
i. TAN Not Available in TAN MASTER OR
ii. All the statements filed for Financial Year 2009-10 and onwards are in cancelled state OR
iii. All the statements filed for Financial Year 2009-10 and onwards are NIL Statements (having ALL challans with amount=0)"

ii & iii seems to be not applicable as I filed the return and got Acknowledgement with RR.
 Number.

Pls help

Quick Summary
A user is encountering an 'Already registered on e-filing site' error when trying to register as a deductor on TRACES, despite having recently filed a Q2 return. The error suggests issues with TAN availability, cancelled statements, or NIL statements, none of which seem applicable. After seeking advice, it's suggested the TAN might already be registered by someone else. The user later confirms the issue resolved itself after approximately 7 days, implying a waiting period is necessary after filing the initial return.

I only filed Q2 return.

When I try to use the option  "Forgot User Id"  I'm getting the message

 " You are not a registered user of TRACES" .

How long have you been registered? Is this your first tds return

Yes. This is my first TDS return

26Q was filed on Oct 2nd.

 

It's now working. I think we need to wait for 7 days after filing return in Income tax portal.
