Update on transfer of ownership?

Hello I applied for a transfer of ownership way back in June 2023 from a joint claim to my sole name, the application was not sent to land registry until October 2023. As of yet I am still waiting to hear back that the land registry has been updated. I have checked online and it is still in both names. I was wondering if you could tell me how long this will take now, as I have been advised it usually takes up to 12 weeks.
It is a not a new build and was a straight forward title update?
If someone could look into this and give me an update that would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Hello Jessica - there's no definitive timescale as those will vary from case to case. Do you have the title number please and I can check and see when it was received and if processing has started

Jessica - many thanks and no apology needed.
Submitted 15th Nov and currently waiting to be processed. Timescales vary as mentioned and whilst 12 months can be an average you should expect at least 4-5 months wait as a possibility.
The Transfer and ownership are protected from 15th Nov so how long it then waits before it is processed isn't usually an issue

Okay thank you for your help, I thought the solicitor had processed the application earlier than that so I will just wait now.
Appreciate your quick reply
Jess
