Is there is a way to check the sync status of a new Distribution List, so we will know when it is ready to be used?

    You mean synced from on-prem via AADConnect?
    You can check the operations in AADConnect Sync Manager or just use 365 Admin portal or Exchange Online Powershell

     Get-DistributionGroup <Group>  
    

    when it shows up its ready to go.

    It should typically be within 30 minutes after creation on-prem.

    Hi @louis_huff ,
    Distribution lists will show up in O365 groups in the Admin Center.
    If not already synchronized, you could refer to this case:
