I'm afraid I'll have to leave your ranks and join those on the other side of the dreaded wait. My wife picked up the new keys and I had a very long awaited item in the box. Already called CanadaAmmo to finalize my order, it'll be on the way tomorrow or monday.

Sorry but I'm pretty excited.

Oh potentially so close, yet so far! Hope you get keys quick!
Still waiting on my re-issued and re-mailed R/PAL after they screwed up my address on the first one.:bangHead:

Hey karma, regarding that issued license I had which was one month late...
Turns out they somehow messed mine up too, they reprinted mine and it came one week later. Total of maybe 5 weeks since issued.

Not bad timing at all. Best part of christmas is going to my in-laws to the giant pile of things i've shipped there for me. It doesn't matter much what anyone else got me for christmas, I got me almost everything i want. :cool: Perfect Christmas everytime.

Yep ours were mailed and received same dates as yours, issued November 14th, husband received his November 26th, so awesome timing, especially since we're all the way across the country from Miramichi. Since they screwed up my address on the first one they had to re-issue it and I'm still waiting :mad:

As I said, I am SO GLAD that I called after the 2 weeks from issue were up, otherwise I wouldn't have known that they screwed up the address and would still be waiting in vain.
At least now I know that it's in the hands of Canada Post somewhere making it's way to my door, 'cos believe me I double and triple checked that they had the right address this time when I called..not that I don't trust them, but..... I don't trust them ;)

Finally had my license approved today (33 days total upon receipt at Miramichi).

Here was my timeline;
Oct. 20/21 - took and passed both the CFSC and CRFSC
Oct. 23 - Item sent Expresspost thru Canada Post
Oct. 26 - Item received at Miramichi (this was shown online not until Nov. 16)
Nov. 23 - called to check progress of my application and had interview done at the same time.
Nov. 26 - Ist reference called for an interview.
Nov. 27 - 2nd reference called for an interview, and online status change to license approved 15 minutes after the interview.

Now just have to wait for them to mail my ID and wait for the mailman.

Finally, received my RPAL/PAL license yesterday. It took 7 business days from the last interview before reaching my hands here in Vancouver, BC.

I did call just over a week ago and was told it was with the BC CFO. Perhaps I will try again tomorrow.

I think it's very strange some people get BC CFO approval 15 mins after interviews and others' like yours get lost somewhere. I hope I'm in the first group. Couple more days and it should show up online.
 
I just had my interview today as well as one of my references. Earliest that my rpal can be approved is Tuesday. Hopefully mine is issued no problem. Second reference is calling tomorrow.
