This is because the Church doesn't "make" Saints, it recognizes them. The definition of a "Saint" is a person in heaven and only God can bestow upon a person such a reward.

I guess I can re word it then. Why doesn't the Catholic Church officially recognize him as a saint already?

Because they don't know if he's a Saint already.
