CCJ Set aside with consent - process & time scales?

Hi there,
I have a CCJ that I thought I might be able to get set aside. I raised it with the solicitors who originally made the claim against me who went on to make an application to the court to have the CCJ set aside, by their consent. They informed me they had made this application to the court on 22/10/2021.
Does anyone know the timescales or process that this set aside might entail? As the solicitors made the claim I wondered if I can expect to hear anything at all. Because of the nature of the case I've never received any official correspondence from either the solicitors or the court, aside from the letter the court sent me when I discovered the CCJ and the solicitors when I arranged the payment schedule.
I am quite an anxious individual so I would be very grateful if anyone can inform me on the process!
Many thanks

Depends which court it is, and how busy they are, its been less than 2 weeks, I'd give it 1-3 months for a response.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

@sourcrates Thank you so much for your reply, I really appreciate it.
It's Northampton County Court. I'm guessing they're probably pretty busy!

Northampton is the bulk clearing centre in the UK for court claims, it see`s a lot of business, contrary to popular belief, not a lot moves very fast in the legal world.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

If the claimant is making the app, it will be without a hearing, but may still take weeks.
Timescales of their work is at

Ah yes, it is the claimant making the application. I am hoping there won't be a hearing as I now live in Bristol!
It's a bit of a waiting game as I would like to buy a house and how I do it kind of hinges on the outcome of this.
Thanks again all.
