PAL Wait Time

UPDATE
Mailed: Dec 5th
Arrived: Dec 7th
Showed up on the Website: Jan 19th
Initial Processing complete: Feb 9th

Finally! Now it's just up to Canada Post to move it 425 kilometres without it taking forever (my confidence has waned at this point, but not my patience).
 
My RPAL upgrade was received Jan 29 but showed as received on Feb 20th and completed initial processing. I was told over a week ago it was just waiting for a photo scan but still no movement.

Took PAL/RPAL course Dec. 13.
Recieved stamped results from Ontario CFO late January (had to get them re-sent)
Received by RCMP Feb 1
Showed up online Feb 22 - completed initial processing, please check at a later date.
Licence issued March 7.
Arrived in the mail today - March 19th.
 
At last, I can fill in my details as an FYI for my RPAL process.! :)
Application received in Miramichi Aug 14th, 2017
After 45 days ( I think it was around 60 days or so) called, told app was at Ontario CFO.
Called CFO, told it would take 1-2 more months for the app to be assigned to regional FO.
Called early 2018, told it had gone for more screening to London office (I had told them about having anxiety)
Left messages at London office spread 2 weeks apart.
Feb 20th or so, received call from London office- turns out I had made error in my application with regards to my phone number-duh!
Had brief chat, no real issues.
Officer then spoke to my spouse the following week, then me again for about 30'-mostly pleasant chat, wanted to know my plan for storage, etc. Approved on Feb 27th.
First day on the range last friday, shot 200 rounds with my ISSC MK22- had great time. :)
Wait was long, but at least they were being thorough, even though anxiety and violence are not something that go hand in hand, whatever.

So now awaiting processing of pistol and restricted rifle...

Cheers

Yeah, I had to really fake that cheery mood but I called again and was lucky enough to talk with someone that actually cared and put some effort, she told me that I was at the final stages of the check and that this portion usually doesn't take long but of course, to call back near the end of march but I'll call every few days.

Alright, my PAL finally got approved and should be in the mail within 2 weeks.

All in all, it took 52 days from them receiving it. With what they were telling me, I thought it would have taken 6 months or something.
 
Would anyone be able to tell me what the process for faxing in the course results is? Where do you guys actually send the fax from, post office? Online service?

First time Ontario applicant R-PAL:
February 1, 2018: application received
February 23, 2018: initial processing complete. Processing.

Sill waiting!! I’ve been calling once a week and for the last month I’ve been told it’s in its final stages with the CFO. Also asked if there was any way to contact the Ontario CFO to follow up with them and was told there was no contact number for them. I’ve seen some of you guys get your app received later than mine and process sooner so that’s kind of annoying. Any tips to get it processed sooner or any tips to overcome the suspense of getting my application processed? ��
