On 11th September we went to the Gozo ID Card office and applied. Got a letter (today)dated 11th October saying we can collect our receipt from the Gozo office and the letter also states it can be used as a temporary card, whilst cards are printed; now currently being done!
I don't think that's too bad really, one month!!!
I await to see what happens when we try the 'receipt' on a bus.
Oh yes, also got our yellow and white cards no problem in 7 days.
