How long before a business is struck off?

[BaconBonce]

Hi all,

How long do companies house take to strike off a company?

I arranged this over 3 months ago - signed all the forms and paid the fee, but it's still sat on their site with a status of "Proposal to Strike off"

I'm not 100% on this but i think there is a legal requirement of a 3 month delay

[Super Bad]

Why not give them a call...

Did they not send you a letter telling you the time gap between the application for the Striking Off and the actual Striking Off?

I've recently struck off one of our companies and I think it is 3 - 4 months.

Once a Proposal to Strike Off is received, it has to be advertised in the London Gazette (English company) for 3 consecutive months. If no valid objections are received, it will be struck off a short while after the 3rd month.
