A miracle attributed to his intercession was investigated and declared to be such by the theological experts of the Vatican on 17 October 2013. This was approved by Pope Francis on 5 June 2015 and allowed for his beatification, which took place on 14 November 2015. Cardinal Angelo Amato, S.D.B., Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints presided over the beatification ceremony – on behalf of the pope – on 14 November 2015 in Victor's former parish church. The cause now proceeds to seek Victor's canonization. The postulator of the cause is Paolo Vilotta.
