Geez my dates are about 4 days behind yours
I just called and they said to try back in 6 weeks
FWIW, there was a guy on Reddit I was talking to who was literally 2 days behind me (I was March 6th he was March 8th) and his Application has been approved and mine hasn’t. I think it all depends who at the CFO is processing your specific application. Mine apparently likes to take vacation days.
April 11 - RPAL License received
All in all it took 2 days shy of 3 months for me to take course, receive my license in the mail. No references contacted.
Purchased my CZ Shadow the other day
Yea I asked my wife to take it to the post office to send it registered mail and she just put a stamp on it and threw it in the mail box. Probably should have done it myself but I figured she would do it. Oh well you’re right, I’ll prob have to gather all my paperwork a second time and send it all in again
I’d say give it another week. You’re so close to when they’ll likely open mail received around that time. I feel unless she mailed it to the wrong address it’s unlikely it didn’t show up there.
It took over a month for it to arrive in the mail after it was processed and issued (as per the RCMP website?).April 11 - RPAL License received

My PAL and RPAL were processed and approved in 28 days on the RCMP website. Says if I don't have it in the mail within 2 weeks, I need to call them. The RCMP website updated this past Monday... so it's been "approved and issued" for a week come Monday. I was hoping I'd have it this coming Monday or Tuesday based on mail times...
It was sent in an envelope with the Miramichi,NB address already printed on it. I’m hopeful it’s there but maybe I’ll get all my paperwork in order and if it’s not there at the end of the week I’ll fire the new one off via registered mail. Thanks for the advice!
Finally issued!
Here’s my timeline in Ontario total time 4 months
Jan 4 took CFSC NR
Sent application to Miramichi Jan 19
Received Feb 5
Credit Card charged March 5
March 6 “application in progress”
Called in 3 times in March (they don’t give much info at all)
License issued April 11th
Called in for pal #
Remington 1100 12 gauge limited edition 200th anniversary ordered!!
The dreadful wait is almost over
Can’t wait to get my hands on this thing!!

So you were able to call in and get your PAL number before you physically received the card in the mail? My application is complete/approved, and "mailed out". It's been a week... I have ordered a handful of guns, that the shops are holding onto waiting for my PAL and RPAL... think I can call tomorrow to get my numbers, since the application has been approved? My licence was issued on April 8th... just waiting for this printer issue related backlog issue to work itself out I guess
That’s right!
The lady who I spoke to from Miramichi was also skeptical but if you order online they just ask for your pal number.
Only pain is waiting for shipping but definitely faster than waiting for mail from NB
