Nope, I never called them and they never spoke with me nor my references. I was just approved.Originally Posted by DarseZ
I did use my parents as my references though, that may have helped because if your parents trust you with a gun, you probably shouldn't need to call in.
It was an RPAL btw
My:
Mailed in: Dec-19-2019

Quebec PAL/RPAL application, first time no checked boxes, clean history
-19 December 2019: registered mail Application received in Miramichi.
- 6 January 2020: Credit card charged and appears online.
-16 January 2020: I receive an envelope from RCMP mentioning I need to do an in person filing for RPAL (QC thing), did it and mailed it registered same day.
-20 January 2020: In person QC RPAL application received in Miramichi
-22 April 2020: I called RCMP to inquire about the status, informed me its with the QC CFO
-22 April 2020: Called QC CFO and the guy interviewed me and my 2 references.
- 4 May 2020: I got another call from Surete QC, it was a lady and did the same interview again, she also requested on of my references call in for interview.
-15 May 2020: I called the Quebec CFO to follow-up, said it needs a final "click" for approval, they suggested I send in a club membership, I sent a copy of my club membership same day
- 20 May 2020: Status showed as Approved on theRCMP site, I called in and got my PAL number. Lady mentioned My card is not printed yet
All in all: 153 days, 103 Working days and still no printed card.
CCFR - CSSA - *NFA Membership Cancelled*

congrats and all that. but Club Membership must be different in Quebec. Here in BC it would be a "catch 22" ... you need an (R)Pal to join a club but then cannot get a (R)Pal if you do not join a club?
153 days not too bad considering all the steps you had to go through. It is looking like i am going to be one of the unfortunate ones that will have the record for the longest wait to get approval
On March 21 was one year mark since my application arrived in Miramichi. So at this point i am at month 14.
just did the online renewal for my rpal in BC, started yesterday, it expires in a year, hopefully thats enough time! lol
Did you send them an email your CFO? I sent CFOON 3 weeks ago and got replied that I am in queue for background check.
Just a quick update; I sent in my application and it was received Feb 25th.
It's in processing online and I called to verify status; Miramichi told me it's with the BC CFO now, but they're not taking calls cuz of COVID-19.
Should I get references to call in? They told me to check again in 2 weeks' time.
Got my PAL today (Alberta).
Application received July 19, 2019.
Said 'Yes' to history of anxiety and depression - off treatment.
Missed a spot on the form about former surname or something so got a call about that in August to clarify.
Called in early January to follow up. She found my application and told me to call back in 2 weeks if I hadn't heard anything.
Checked status website March 30 - License issued but obviously not printed due to the plague.
Never called my references.
Glad I wasn't in a hurry
