I received my dvla code request on 25/5, my conditional offer (subject to DBS clearance) on 29/5 and my formal offer on 13/6. Start date is 9/7.

After I sent the DVLA code, I received an email saying they were starting the security checks and to send a photo for my ID card.

I think the wait after that is dependent on how long it takes them to sort an induction date out, mine only took 5 days but others have waited much longer.
