PAL Wait Time

Good evening, could anyone enlighten me on when the application appears online? I mailed mine in mid-October and nothing shows up yet, thanks.

I also mailed mine Oct. 15th. I’m checking my credit card daily for the highly anticipated RCMP charge!! I’ve never wanted my CC charged so much in my life! ;o)

I look forward to your update. I have a co worker who took the restricted course on the same day as me, he used a cc I used a money order, he sent regular mail I sent signature mail. So once yours is online I'll know to let him know to start watching [we are around 20th] should be anytime soon now.

I know the feeling they signed for mine October 16th every day now been checking like you never wanted the card charged so much before seems like it’s forever
 
Quebec Here:

Received: 22 Sept 2020 (non registered, regular mail)
CC charged : 13 Jan 2021

Still waiting for card issuance. No boxes checked.
I bought a house so my DL/Health Card are at new address (for insurance reasons) and havent moved in yet. Nothing else is at the new address though and application reflects old address, we'll see how that goes.

License issued : 29th Jan 2021
 
What a good morning, licensed issued. Her is my timeline;
App sent sep 09
App received sep 16
Cc charged Jan 08
Licensed issued Feb 02
I would've gotten it earlier but simple stupid mistake on my application added 3 weeks to the processing, but its all good now.
I called the 1800 number Friday, the guy who picked up was nice I think he speeded up the process but he didn't say, said everything looks good to me. 2 business days later the application approved.
Good luck to everyone is waiting.

Do you remember what the simple mistake was? I forgot to enter the exact dollar amount to charge my credit card. I entered all the credit card info correctly but forgot to add the exact dollar amount next to it, I’m hoping they assume I understand the application amount for a restricted license is 80 odd dollars

It's a long story briefly some of the info in the app didn't match the ones on the driver's license.
In your case, I think they will charge your cc the exact amount based on what kind a license your applying for and what docs you submitted or they might give you a call to confirm the exact amount. I think its not a big deal
 
First Post for me and status update for mine:
Mailed out Sept 20th
CC Charged Jan 20th
Appeared online Jan 25th
Alberta Applicant so hopefully they'll get it to me soon!

Online status changed to approved on the 2nd of Feb, Godspeed to you October application folks your time is upon us!
 
They receive my application on Oct 13th, still nothing shows up. Anyone's CC charged on 9th or any day around 13th?
 
Oct 13 is when my app was received by RCMP
Card just charged yesterday.
Ontario Applicant (not that it matters for this stage)

Double edit: also, my application is now visible online

Hello, just wondering when you noticed your application was finally processing online did it say “you have been or will be contacted by us for missing information.”

Just wondering if all proccessing updates say this? Or if I messed up somehow.

You effed up. Call them asap to get it sorted.
 
Even if it didn't say that I'd be calling to make sure everything is A-ok. My CC was charged last week and I called them to confirm that they have everything they need and they said yes everything is good. So fingers crossed 🤞🏼
