I recently was offered a job in Ireland and my employer has filed the application for a Critical Skills Employment Permit (CSEP) last week. As per the website https://enterprise.gov.ie/en/What-We-Do ... ing-Dates/, it seems the current processing time for employment permits are 12-14 weeks!

So I was basically wondering
1) Is this the most accurate timeline for processing? Has anybody got CSEP processed recently in the last few months and how was the waiting time?
2) The website indicates employment permits only, does that mean it also includes CSEP and they are processed in a similar timeline or CSEPs have a different timeline?
Any help will be appreciated and thanks in advance
