    I finally received my PAL today! I completed the CFSC and CRFSC in February, received the results and sent off application to Miramichi on March 3. It was received by them March 9. Received my PAL card today in the mail.

    I did my course in February, mailed in the forms in March, I was charged the fees in early June, but I still can't get confirmation or a status from the website. The waiting continues.

    I'm in Ontario, did the course in December 2019, paid for the license early January 2020. Got approved mid July, got the plastic card 2 weeks later.

    CFO called one of my references and myself. The conversation lasted about 5 minutes. The online status changed about 10 minutes after the phone call.

    Well the wait begins for me. Sending it in tomorrow. Let's see if I get it by next summer.

    Is there a rough timeline on when your application will at least show it has been received? CFSC and CRFSC completed on June 27 and 28. Application mailed on June 30. No record of my application on the RCMP website or fees charged as of yet.

    Good to hear if they are now processing some May applications. I submitted early June so hopefully not too long before they get to mine.
