I just guessed it to be about 5-10 business days...hopefully
    I'm curious about this as well, my 28 day waiting period is up tomorrow (Tuesday)...wondering how long it takes between them approving your license and shipping it to you?

    Does the license ship from the CFO of your province?

    I did that with min the day after it arrived there.. and poof 10 min later it showed online. Several others I know did the same and had very similar results. Bo polite and inquire and it gets moved along as a rule.

    So why should you get preference over anyone else..because you tracked your package, tied up an agent before you were suppose to..like a squeaky wheel.
    While others like my self are using the instructions.
    Oh well,, I am good for awhile..keep up the good work and great advice, and everyone else wonders why the wait times are so long.

    They called my references but not my spouse (who is also my photo guarantor). I had her call today and they said they don't call spouses. Weird? I figured that'd be their first call.

    I plan on calling them as I fax them my test tesults, considering a fax is live and if they put the two pieces together, they may as well do the interview at the same time.

    Kinda scary how some people, applying for a restricted firearms licence can lose their cool so quickly on a website. Hope the CFO doesn't monitor this thread or none of you would get a PAL
