How long to get a Residency permit ?

Hi, can anyone tell me how long approximately it takes to get residency visa after being given the permission from the EDB to purchase a property over $375k . Thank you

All I can tell you is that we submitted ours at the beginning of February and are still waiting.

Thank you for your reply. Sadly it is not good news for us. We are about to complete on a property and we were wondering how long before we get the visa, so that we can ship our belongings with the visa and therefore no dutie to be paid at customs. It looks like we will be owning an empty property for a while before we can live in it, with our belongings not being able to arrive. Do you have any experience of this  dilemma ?
