    Well how long is a piece of string ? There is no definitive answer, all you can do is work on guesstimates.

    But here is some information for you, I applied for a SEC 13 license on 27/08/2021 and it was approved on 18/02/2022, furthermore I collected my license card on 25/03/2022.

    The best advice is to submit yesterday already. All the best and good luck.

    I had 4 licenses applied for in September and approved exactly 120 working days later. Still no card however! Should not take as long as your competency!

    I've just had approval after 83 days from submission. The card however could take 2 weeks to 6 months. I'm on 3 months and 2 months waiting for previous approvals.

    I think according to Martin Hood we are back to the 90 day turnaround time as the State of Dissaster has been lifted.

    These days on average you are looking at about 6 months from submission to card in hand.

    My last one, submitted end of Sept last year, approved 23 Feb. Card lying at provincial, not at the station yet, should be next week.

    6 Months or sooner if you are very lucky.

    1 Year like my last one if you are not lucky.

    Worse than a pregnancy i tell you.
