it's longer then that, most people are waiting 3 months for their credit cards to be charged, I'm 3 months as of tmw (2nd) and mine still hasn't been. so I'd say 4.5-5 months with no issues to who knows how long if there's issues

This is accurate. Three months for CC charge and after that 1-3 months for the license to be issued. Also it doesn't matter what province, it all goes to Miramichi and is processed the same way, by the same people.
