CFO for Alberta both are backed logged 3 months as they are just starting on June applications, it took mine a few months as well,
but it is in the mail should have it this week or next as it does nothing at this moment with this import ban but still great to have it.

just be patient and it will be approved i had past criminal charges and i was able to pass, the 2 CFO in Alberta are amazing and understanding they are just overloaded.

I dunno, but it must be pretty long. They received mine on April 12 and charged my CC July 13. Since then all I get is the 'initial review completed' message.

All provinces are in the same boat from what RCMP Firearms mentioned 6-12 month to process new applications, some are passing quicker than others due to nothing on their records, or health wise,
But it is the 28-day min waiting period before your app is even looked on top of the 3 months back log you have waited on top of, and what is the point of applying for PAL due to no firearms availability, good old JT scum bag,
