Went into Garda station on Monday just gone for a meeting with the superintendent about issuing my certificate (first time licence) it’s routine to this station to do this so the superintendent knows who she is dealing with, the clerk who issues out the grant letters emailed on Tuesday to say that she has the application processed and the grant letter will be sent out by post, my question is how long does this usually take does anyone know, thanks guys

Usually a week, but up to two weeks. You pay in the post office, then give it another week (ish) for the physical license to land.
