PAL/RPAL Timelines

[Diazjoaquin]

My wife's got tossed into the "indefinite wait" pile cause I forgot to put my signature on the part where I say I'm OK with her having guns. She finally called them, they explained what happened. She passed me the phone, they didn't even ask for my name or anything, just "Are you all right with her having firearms? Yup. Thank you." Click. Lol.

I've been lucky so far. Not up for renewal for a while now.

Thats unfortunate, hope it gets resolve soon..

" Current Status: Your application has completed initial processing. It is now in progress. Please check the status again at a later date. "

Should I give them a call and see if any info is missing or anything ?

What does your provincial CFO say when you call them to ask about it?

Called a bunch of times best answers I got was there are no problems with it but is still pending approval. Others than that they won't say anything.
