Printing/mailing timeline is variable. Mine was approved mid-December (16th or something), called the 16th of Jan and was told it was printed, and it didn’t arrive until Feb 6th. So that means mine was printed for three weeks or so before it hit the mail. Also AB.

Looks like everyone should expect up around 7-8 weeks for it to come after approval.
