    My last renewal took almost 6 months including going over the expiry date of my RPAL (which is not supposed to matter legally but these days who knows?).
    After finally getting a little perturbed after numerous calls where I was told "these things take time".
    The reason? There's no such thing as a lifetime membership to a gun range. Really? How about the last 2 renewals that had the same exact paperwork showing lifetime membership? Or the other 2 ranges I'm a yearly member of?
    The mirimichi make work project at it's finest.

    I made another call last week and punched in the BC CFO extension but it just went through to the ladies at the CFC. I asked if I needed to do an interview and if I did could they put me through to the CFO, they told me that the interview wasn't always required and because my application had been recently sent along to the BC CFO and I should just wait at least a couple more weeks. Time will tell I guess.

    Are you still waiting?

    I called again today and said I was told to give BC CFO 2-3 weeks to review the file, I was told that even though I have waited a long time there are others that have been waiting even longer. I politely told her I was just wondering if I could do anything to help speed anything along eg. if the CFO wanted to interview me and my spouse now. She told me that the only thing she could do was take my file over to a CFO so that it was now assigned to a specific CFO and that should speed things up.

    I'm assuming it has been sitting in a big pile this whole time doing nothing?
