Unsurprisingly, you don't know what you are talking about. The Presidential Transition Act of 1963 (Public Law 88-277) provides:
"The terms "President-elect" and "Vice-President-elect" as used in this Act shall mean such persons as are the apparent successful candidates for the office of President and Vice President, respectively, as ascertained by the Administr ...[text shortened]... heir official duties[/b] or correct an abuse of discretion. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/mandamus
On Dec 14 it will be apparent, not before then.
From the BBC:
International monitors praise US election
A team of international monitors from the Organization of American States (OAS) has praised the conduct of the US election.
The delegation - which had 28 experts and observers from 13 countries - said in its preliminary report: "While the environment of the elections was competitive and fraught, the ability of voters across the country to access the vote in less than ideal circumstances exemplifies the democracy for which the United States is renowned and which it has championed across the globe.
"The OAS Mission urges all political parties, candidates and citizens to allow this democracy to prevail and to allow the remainder of the electoral process to unfold within the framework of the law."
The monitors were able to follow campaigning events and the voting itself on 3 November in several locations, including the key battleground states of Georgia and Michigan.
They said they did not witness any irregularities there, responding to President Trump's claims that the Democrats had tried to steal the elections.
@metal-brain saidIf Congress had wanted to wait until the Electors cast their ballots before the provisions of the PTA became effective, they would have said so.

They didn't and there is no reasonable interpretation that would suggest so.

@no1marauder saidyour 'above post' does not state when the electoral college certified this election. NOTHING is official YET.
See my post above.
@mott-the-hoople saidIt doesn't have to be "official" for the purposes of the Presidential Transition Act; it only has to be "apparent".

In fact, Biden's victory this year is at least as apparent as Trump's was in 2016. In that year, transition preparations started promptly as commanded by the applicable law.
