I mailed my application out 14 of march 2020 and got a call on the 24th of December from the RCMP asking me for a extra dollar because they razed the price
the end of march. and she said to me she was passing it off to the CFO then still has not changed status. hope this helps out. this is what mine shows.

I submitted my license request in late October and got my license last week of Feb. This was for both restricted and non restricted.
