Reclaiming bank charges - Has anyone filed a claim against Halifax?

Hi
Can anyone advise on how long it takes between filing a claim against a bank (Halifax) and the court issuing an Allocation questionnaire (should Halifax submit a defence)?
Halifax haven’t replied to my LBA (sent 28 July) and I want to file a claim but I will be out of the country for two weeks (from Friday 18th Aug until Tuesday 5th Sep).
I don't really want to wait until I get back to file a claim but I am worried that if I file it before I go, and Halifax submits a defence, the allocation questionnaire could arrive too soon for me to complete it within the time limit.
Does anyone know what the time limit is on completing the allocation questionnaire as one piece I read said it must be returned within 7 days and another piece said within 14 days. Which is correct?
Would it be safe enough to print a hard copy version of my claim and post it as I leave or should I wait until I get back?
Many thanks
