    I'm in Southern Alberta as well.

    Took my PAL course January 9th, 2016
    They received my Application on January 15th, 2016

    It's up on the website now and has been for about a week, initial processing done. I'm thinking I'll give them a call at the end of this week just to make sure they have every thing they need.

    It can relate to your state of mind, some people may be in a depressed state when filling for bankruptcy and therefore may look to buy a firearm to kill themselves. I've never heard of any one being denied because of bankruptcy I am sure they will just ask your references about it or you and judge weather your troubled by it or not

Does anyone know weather they take the payment once it shows up as in progress or do they take the payment later. Not sure if i should just call them up and give them the card info as it does not state that any info is missing only that its completed initial processing.

    Just Saw This Message Online

    Three weeks from the time the application was received I got this message:
    "Your application has been received. It is currently being processed. You have been, or will be contacted either by phone or by mail for
    additional information. Please check the status again at a later date."


    Does anyone know if this is standard and will they necessarily call me?
