It looks like they don't mention self employed specifically. I assume you have an online business that you can still operate before the permit is granted.

They do. The average for self-employment in 2014 is 233 days.
It also seems like waiting times for normal employment has grown about 20% since 2014, so we might extrapolate that to the self-employment category, which gives us about 280 or a bit over 9 months.

k0p, what happened? Was your citizenship application rejected?
Every case is unique. You can't measure the result of your application based on arbitrary anecdotes online.

Getting an RP as a self-employed person is not easy. It requires more than just patience while they process the documents. You need a solid business case, a business plan, financial reports etc and, preferably, proof that your activity is ALREADY providing you a subsistence income. A business IDEA is not enough, on its own, to get an RP, even if you are not in a hurry.
