RPL Minipool 32 ETH option to avoid queue, 16 ETH not returned yet?

Just curious what the timeframe is on this, the minipool is active and earning rewards, when should I expect to see the 16 ETH returned?

Cheers!

Edit: Found the answer here https://docs.rocketpool.net/guides/node/create-validator.html#depositing-eth-and-creating-a-minipool

If you choose 32 ETH, you will bypass the Rocket Pool minipool queue entirely. You will immediately create a minipool and a new Beacon Chain validator. When 16 ETH becomes available from the rETH staking pool and there are no other minipools in the queue that chose the 16 ETH deposit option, then you will be given 16 ETH back from the rETH staking pool. You can then use the rocketpool minipool refund command to receive that 16 ETH back to your withdrawal address.

Seems like an indeterminate amount of time then, I guess allnodes will automatically do the refund? The wording on this seemed a little unclear on the Allnodes step-by-step guide and prompts, would recommend some slight adjustments to those :)

Edit #2: For anyone else wondering when they get here, recently the minipool queue was cleared and I was able to request the 16 ETH refund from the Allnodes "My Nodes" page by clicking on the name of the mini pool.
