If you have concerns about your ex you may want to be patient and let the time pass so she has no say...
It's not about money.... It's about sending a message...

That's not necessarily accurate. As long as there's no incidents of domestic violence or threats of violence,rarely are PAL apps denied.
Send an explanation with details with your application as indicated. Police deal with this issue continually. It's nothing new to them. At worst,it may add a week or two to processing.
I've got divorced twice 5 years between.
It was NO ISSUE and neither EX signed my paperwork.
They probably ask that question to determine two things - if they do follow-up on your answer. 1) are your trying to buy a gun to wipe out your EX? and/or 2) are you trying to buy a gun to off yourself because "they left you"?
If they refused a PAL/RPAL simply based on a divorce or domestic break-up or because your EX hated you, half of us wouldn't ever have a PAL or RPAL.
No different then the questions about "have you experienced a job loss", "attempted suicide" (or whatever). Just asking are you "stable or unstable"...
Hey Guys,
Going through or having gone through a separation or divorce is hardly a reason for denying the PAL. What's important is full disclosure. If you try to hide the fact of a separation or divorce, that is what will result in a denial of your license. Think about it, if you get your PAL , and a month later go through a separation, do they confiscate your PAL? of course not.
You have nothing to worry about. Explain the story on a separate paper if needed. Divorce is not a valid reason to be denied a PAL
I got my RPAL while I was going through a divorce. I did not ask my ex for her signature, and I had no problems. I assume they called her, but I have never asked her about it.
