What number are people calling to talk to the Ontario CFO? My PAL application has been in processing for almost 80 days so I figure talking to them may help

I never knew you could call the Ontario CFO directly. If that's the case I'd love to get that number as well.

I submitted by PAL/RPAL application on June 29
My credit card got charged August 10
And I got approved and received my PAL/RPAL # (through phone) on August 21.

I did not get a call nor did any of my references, I thought that was a little strange because after reading through the forums I was sure I was gonna have to make one of my reference call in...

I'm in Ontario

Seems like only QC have been getting calls lately. Congrats!

I've been told that references can no longer call in due to a policy change. Can anyone confirm or deny?

I was told that as well a few weeks ago when I called in.

Darn, that's disappointing to hear.

I passed the test last weekend and got the first page of report(form 5484) with examiner's signature. And was told sending the Original copy to RCMP and keep the photocopy as record.

My question is : what is the stamped test results? My examiner never give it to me and never told me I will receive it in the future. What should I do? BTW, I comes vancouver island of B.C.

Hope to get the reply soon. Thanks a lot.
