DCU MEMBERSHIP & VISA APPROVAL TIME?

I kinda went about the approval process Z to A,  instead of A to Z. When speaking to a rep at DCU, he suggested that I apply for the visa card before apping for the membership just to check out a potential offer. I was approved for the credit card right off but I'm curious to know how long does it take to be approved for the membership? Anyone knows?

I wish they would but I do see two pulls on my credit report from DCU but from different departments and on the same date. I wonder if they would erase one of those pulls?
