The Constitution was written in Philadelphia State House (not Delaware) between May and September of 1787. Signing did occur on September 17. While it was probably forwarded to Congress, it was the Congress under the Articles of Confederation which had been scrapped in favor of the Constitutional Convention. Technically, the document was forwarded to independent ratifying conventions in each state and fully ratified in early 1789.
