    Normally 2-3 weeks, but anything up to six months.

    It should be before three months as they need to give 56 days to pay as well as time to summons in the case of nonpayment.

    But is it not 56 days to pay from the time of the offender receiving the notice in post ?

    Yes. A summons must be issued within 6 months. So if you are to allow 56 days for payment and time for summons issuing that will take up a large amount of the last 3 months.
