HSM Visa - Processing Time

maybejust

Hi,

I got a job offer recently from NL and my employer will file HSM visa. Does anybody knows what is the current processing timelines? IND website says 2 weeks for sponsored but I'm wondering if that has changed because of covid or not. Btw, I'm non-EU, so I would need a MVV sticker too for first time travel.

Looking forward to a valuable response.
