Seems to have gone downhill, yes. I've had them complete transfers late Friday afternoon before a long weekend "hey, you probably would like to get out to the range with this over the weekend..."...I guess it was unrealistic to expect that kind of service to continue for any length of time.
Saskatchewan New RPAL Completion
- Thread starter redcrew71
- Start date
well mine has been about 49 days....last week Mirimachi said it was sent to Sask Firearms officer....I called today to Sask officer...on hold for over 20 min...very polite lady said it was "assigned" to an officer 2 days ago...hmmm...so take a week to get assigned?
She would not give me a timeline it could be another month she says....????? Says it now goes into background checks, etc. I had my references phone in couple weeks ago with no issues. I asked if there are any issues now...and she said nothing on the file yet. it is the Q....said call back in a month again...wow. I will call next week.

March 22nd - RPAL Application sent to Miramichi, Express post, sig required
March 28th - Received and signed for at the CFC in Miramichi
Apr 22nd - Entered into the system
Apr. 30th - Approved and Issued
May 9th - Still waiting for it in the mail.
On April 19th it was not in the system yet, after calling the CFC they said a 1-2 week backlog and that i shouldn't expect to see it online for about that many more weeks, but on Monday there it was. Did my interview on Thursday, my references did there's by Tuesday morning, and Tuesday afternoon it was approved and issued and i should expect it within 2 weeks (next Tuesday but I'll give them until Thursday).

when you say approved and issued what do you mean? you have the exact timeline as me...mine just went to Sask firearms officer last week...hmmmm
Update: 52 days after the acknowledged date of receipt of my renewal application I telephoned CFC to enquire about possible causes of delay, e.g. anything missing or seeming incorrect on my application. I was told my application appears to be all correct and was forwarded to Sask CFO office for approval and that they are about a month behind on opening license applications so the quoted typical 45 day processing time isn't true. As of today, the online report hasn't changed.
The message that i had received indicated that it had been approved by the CFO and that they were printing the license and putting it in the mail.
As an update to that post, when I got home from work my RPAL was on the kitchen table. As of noon today I am the owner of a S&W M&P40 with a LTATT good for all Ranges, Gunsmith's and Border Crossing in AB and SK. There are some perks to living in Lloydminster

You bastard. I only have alberta and the lloyd fish and game club. My wife has the same as you.
Mine took 10 months to get, said initial processing started or whatever for 11 months. I phoned in every month or so and they told me there was a backlog and that it was passed on to the chief firearms officer for review. Sent it away in February and received it in December. Average time is about 3 months though for everyone I know that has gotten it recently.
When I called in to get my interview, and then gave my refs the call in number, things went fast. Now stuck waiting 5-10 days for a transfer.
