The CFC website regarding my application to upgrade from a PAL to a RPAL has been changed to show my application has been approved. It will take up to 2 weeks more to actually receive the license.
From the date the CFC received my application, it took 51 days to approve, and it will be another 1-2 weeks before I get the license in the mail. Both my references were checked 32 days after the CFC received it.
I post this info for anyone else waiting and wanting to know how fast other applicants are being approved.
My application was pretty close to the same, I called the Alberta CFO last week and they looked at it and said they'd approve it. Now i have the message about 2 week mailing time.
