Who it suits
Who it suits in one line: first-timers and regulars equally. Beyond the number, the differences are in the detail. (feiskimeq wuntithe)

If something changes, note the date; patterns only show up with dates on them. In short, Who it suits is worth a minute before you commit.
How long it takes
How long it takes: the line most people need is two to four weeks, end to end. In practice, complex cases run longer.
The primary source has the final word, and it is worth a minute to check it. (feiskimeq wuntithe)
When in doubt, choose the simpler option first; it is the one least likely to need undoing. That is the whole of How long it takes for most readers.
Common mistake
A short note on Common mistake. The figure to hold onto is leaving it late and paying more; what matters is that a short checklist prevents most of it.
