Three weeks for mine...no complaints, except the cost

My medical, on the other hand...
I think they bill you as a matter of course as soon as they get the application. When and whether you get the card is another matter entirely. Is this legal? I'm not sure. Before they process your application, how can they even say you will be eligible to hold an ASIC? If your application is rejected, for whatever reason, do they refund the money? I would have thought the most logical process would be to charge you for the card last, rather than first.
Would it be worth writing your local member, and/or the Minister for Transport?
Agreed 4 months is ridiculous - your MP's office should be get to the bottom of exactly what the hold up is, if they are doing their job properly.
