    I was able to get through to the CFO line a little while ago and it was pretty frustrating. The agent reiterated that there were no notes or outstanding pieces on my application so it should be done soon. I told her very politely I'd been getting told that for months but it feels like something is wrong, and nobody is giving me any information on how I can remedy it. That I can't resolve an inadequacy in my application if nobody tells me about it.

    She expressed that she understood and that she'd leave a note for the person assigned my application to contact me about it. She admitted, it had been in their hands for an awful long time for no notes to have been left about the file. That was about a month ago.

    On the other hand, I haven't heard from my MP's office in awhile either. At our last contact they were expressing how frustrating it was because the Alberta CFO was just absolutely ghosting them. I won't bother them though unless they have an update, they're swamped with more important immigration stuff.

    I don't mind that my application warrants additional attention, but it seems like that isn't what's happening. If they haven't even opened the application to say "Hrm this doesn't look good I need more notes from their doctor" after nearly half a year, I'm not optimistic about this getting done anytime soon despite being told optimistically no notes is good news for an application with personal history boxes checked.

    Dam, that is crazy, I was on the phone with the CFO Alberta and I was told that they had to resign my file again which makes no sense, and I ask if you can please rerate, she could not....

    That's so frustrating. I'm sure they think they're being helpful when they tell people things like this but "resign your file again" means nothing to people who aren't working for the CFO.

    Ontario PAL and RPAL update

    Application received January 28
    CC charged April 6

    Still nothing but crickets. It's obvious that this is a concerted effort to throw a bucket of gasoline and a match, on an already broken system. Mark my words, the Liberals are just getting started. Soon, they will stop issuing new licenses and then stop renewals. They will ban all guns including the little single shot .22 that you have had since you were a kid. They will ban all forms of hunting and recreational / sport shooting. And that includes bow hunting. And to everyone who thinks that there will be an election soon, forget about it. They have 3 more years of power, and they are going to hang on to every single second of it.

    Sorry for the rant. Good luck to everyone.

    I sent my paperwork in on March 2nd for my RPAL, I already had my PAL. My CC was charged three weeks later for the processing fee. My new card was in my mailbox on July 19th. None of my references were contacted either.
