Has anyone decided to do the old fashioned paper form to initiate a transfer? Anyone with experience doing it this way?

Actually, you need the seller's Name, and telephone number
Yes, that’s needed. I thought I’d given my last name to the buyer for him to complete the transfer but I guess I hadn’t and they wouldn’t let him complete it. They told him to call back, grrrrr
Oh dear!
Tried to send an e-mail to CFO and received this:

I'm in the same boat. BC transfer, of which I had two done last year within one business day. Can't even get in the queue. I wonder if they've just turned the phones off to try to clear the dealer backlog which must be huge. I've always had excellent service from the CFO folks but their employer, the Trudeaucracy, is a well known under or non-performer on nearly everything they do so this current BS is no surprise. I'm sure he's watching cartoons in his basement while in "isolation" and laughing at our displeasure!
Arcosdad, have you tried 1-6-1 when calling? I tried for 9 business days to get through until I tried that extension on Friday. I asked a general question on transfers the. Mentioned I had one. 1st time I called was only a few min on hold before they picked up but the woman was not trained and could no help. Called back moments later and picked French (they all speak English as well) and the lady helped me. Even let me patch the other party onto the call to complete the initial notification. Hope to hear from CFO soon but not holding breath.
Not doing any transfers at the moment - but I've called a half dozen times within the last week and only got through to the main-line for RCMP once and then they transferred me to the ON chief firearms officer and it went straight to auto-recording saying call back later. Office has been playing the same recording every time I've called in the past week. Just trying to change my address for Restricted.
Side note: I've only had to wait more than a week for a restricted transfer Once (for my first pistol years back). ever since then I would call the same day I initiated the transfer and keep it up and within a day or 2 it was approved. Really depends on how soon you want it completed - otherwise don't call and you may get lucky in 10-15 business days.

I ordered a handgun from Ronin Sports in Ontario and got a transfer reference number by email from Ronin today. Do I actually need to call in to the CFP/CFO?
I’ve read that if I am purchasing from a business I do not need to call in to the CFP.

Correct. Sit tight, now you wait for provincial CFO approval before they can ship.
My purchase was also June 1st and got my reference # the next day when I called in at Tenda. I sent it ASAP to the Quebec CFO and just received my transfer notice now which I just emailed in to Tenda with a note to please let me know when they will ship. I read somewhere that it took up to 18 days to ship ad to me that's unacceptable. If this is the case, please notify me the next day and I'll drive up to To Richmond Hill to pick it up.
