i have had my pal 1 year and just upgraded to rpal when i did the upgrade did my 5 years start again?
 
for those of you that had your PAL's and upgraded to RPAL afterwards, how long was your wait till your new card was issued, and did you have to go through with the phone interviews?
 
There's a few upgrade posts in the grand "Shorten PAL approval times" thread. Yes, you will get called. No, there's no 28 day wait time. RPAL is not another license, it's an endorsement to your current one, like adding air brakes to your drivers license.

I don't recall 100% (stopped following the thread) but I believe most were getting "approved" in about 10 days from them entering it into the system, or about 21 days after they get the papers.

thank you I will go read into that thread further, I took a look but it seemed very much directed for a "new applicant" so I didn't look into it that hard.
 
All in all it took about 5-6 weeks for me. It was a stretch to get the interviews done, but very quick after that. I haven't received it in the mail yet, so I'm not sure on the renewel date.
 
7 weeks to upgrade your PAL to RPAL? that seems kinda long.

not a bad thing, gives me time to try and put money away for my pistol purchases.

thanks for the input guys

my upgrade took aslong as someone appling for a new rpal. but i'm pretty sure it got forgot in marimachi for atleast two weeks. call three times and was told it was at the bc cfo just to find out that it was not fowarded when the thought. it was almost 90 days to my mailbox. now i'm waiting again for the transfer and ltatt:(:mad:
