I applied for my RPAL, they called one of my references but they never called me, has this happened to anyone else? I just feel like something isn't right...

Sounds like standard bueracracy.Originally Posted by jacobsladder

Friend got his without being called, and no references called
It happens.
was it an upgrade
This happened to me too, just last month. In fact, I called them, and they said they tried to contact my references, but no answer. They asked to have one of my references call them, which he did immediately after. They didn't interview me, or my spouse. License was approved the same day.
Ironically, that same reference got a letter a couple days later from them asking him to call in, so maybe that's how they handle it now if they can't reach your reference.
This sounds like completely normal procedure. It's always been a arbitrary thing whether or not you, you're significant other, or your references get called, for some it's all, for others none. The only two things guaranteed to happen every time, is the verification of your personal information, and a background check.
" First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. " - Martin Niemöller
CCFR member!
Got my pal and rpal together, with only one reference called.
Don't worry, you'l have your card in about a week.
Your concern is that your RPAL was approved after your application was completed in full and obviously correctly and they called a reference ?
And your stil not happy?
Ok, just trying to get my head wrapped around this one.

Seems to happen to some.
Not sure why.
Me on the other hand, everyone was called. Lol.
Why would they call you? Assuming that you filled out the application accurately and completely and attached all the necessary supporting documents, what more is there to add?
Since they did contact at least one of your references that shows that something is happening with your application, so relax. Everything sounds perfectly normal....
Unless...(dun dun duuuun) you have something to hide, citizen?
OK, that was mean. Sorry. I'd be worried if they called looking for more info or further explanation of something. But based on what you've said, this sounds straight up legit.
The downside of learning stuff is that it makes me realize how much I don't know.
