When was the canonization of Saint Paul the Hermit?

St. Paul the Hermit was never formally canonized, since he was reputed to be a saint before the Congregation for Saints began. There are many saints in a similar situation; the Church generally assumes that these people are worthy of the title, but does occasionally review a pre-congregation saint and remove them from the canon, the list of saints. In such cases, private devotion and veneration of the saint is still permitted, but the Church does not publicly venerate the saint. St. Paul the Hermit is still assumed by the Church to be a saint, but there has not been a formal investigation.
