PAL Wait Time

[connor2557]

Yea, I dunno what's going on at the B.C. office. I'm sure they're overwhelmed like everybody, but this is really turning into a long wait. I mailed my application over five months ago, and all I get is the 'initial review completed' message.

not sure tbh, seems like no one's there, I rarely see people who got approved from bc, idk if there's little amount of applications or if thyre just sitting on them, at the time I sent my application most people were saying 4 months and they got there license, obviously more if the rcmp gotta look deeper into things but still. I get that there overwhelmed, I just really want to start going to the range and get into hunting. so I'm a little annoyed, but it is what it is

Waiting for nearly 5 months in BC. Not too sure what to do, I'm a little worried my license is going to expire before I get my new one. I also have a transfer pending which might get all screwed up. Fingers crossed my application is processed soon.

Application submitted: April 9, 2022
Application received: April 9, 2022
Card charged: April 9, 2022

Been at 'initial review' since April 9, 2022.

Has anyone here from BC received their license recently? If so, how long did it take? I recently heard somewhere it can take upwards of 14 months. Which is obviously completely ridiculous if true.

Calling is best, as you can try to push your application,
