How long did your work permit actually take?

Migrationsverket says 4 months, curious what people have really experienced lately. Applied in March with a complete application through a certified employer and still waiting. Trying to work out whether to chase it or whether that just moves you to the back of a different queue.

Mine took five months and two weeks last year, certified employer as well. Chasing did nothing. The case worker told me directly that the queue is by submission date, full stop.
