    It's a max in theory. In reality, you could have your license, or refusal to grant a license, in anywhere between a week and three plus months.

    From what I'v seen, most Supers tend to take the three months from when they receive the application in the station. ie NOT from when you drop it in. You will usually get a letter from the super giving you a date before which you can expect a decision.

    Cheers i guess i'll just have to wait it out. Tho it would be nice to get a shot in before the season ends.
