When you say 'immediately', do you mean within the same in-game day...?

If not, after inviting said villager, did you create a new character (and not with any current character or mayor) to search for plot around town?

My understanding is that the ones you invited tend to have their plot appear the next day.

You're supposed to make the time 5:45~ the next day. New days start at 6 AM in animal crossing. What you did is time traveled backwards to a new day with your mayor which set their plot.

New day starts at 6am..
I usually TT 2 minutes before 6am and go into town with a new character to search for the plot.

I think that might be your issue. As a new day starts at 6am, TTing back to 5:45 on the same day makes it, technically, seem like a day has passed. You instead want to TT to 5:45 of the following day.

damnit

 

[tamagotchi]

Aw, shoot. Did they at least move in an okay spot? :/

 

[Mango]

Just to point out, there's no need to do the 5:45am time-set. Like others have said, new days start at 6am. As long as you don't "log-in" on a pre-existing character on a new day, your town won't be "prepared," but it will be generated for that day if you make a new character.

I followed this video which explains it pretty well.

If you want to start plot resetting immediately and aren't near 6 am you would have to set the clock.

Exactly this. Setting the time to 6 AM is completely useless and will often backfire. To be honest, it's basically just another way to screw yourself over.
