Rough estimate as to the time it takes from CC charge to getting the license in hand? Ontario and did not check yes to any boxes either

How long did it take from the date you mailed in your application, before they charged your card?

I heard some people got their CC charged within a month and then got their pal in hand 2 months later some earlier

Average since the beginning of this craze has seemingly been 3 months to CC charge, then 3 months to approval.
