Shorten PAL Approval Times

Phoned yesterday
Application received May 16
CC charged June 26
Appeared online July 3
Interviews July 9
Yesterday was told its at Manitoba CFO for final approval. Check back in a few weeks.
 
Does anyone have a sample letter I can send to my MP cause this whole thing is starting to get annoying. I cant believe they can charge my CC and then put my file in a different pile to be finished when they feel fit. It still isn't ready for interviews and its been online now for 2 weeks
 
Ontario

Received app on May 16th.
Status changed to application complete - wait 2 weeks for mail etc on 22 July.

so a little over 2 months from receipt.

Was for PAL and RPAL
 
Anyone know the ext for Manitoba CFO? I phoned the 1-800-number last week but was told to wait a few weeks. Thought maybe if I knew the CFO ext I could talk to them and get some answers. Thx
 
This was a renewal of an rpal:

Sent June 20

They received June 24

Appeared on system saying inital processing completed July 16

Licence issued July 22.
 
Called and checked today application still only has basic info online was told they are about 3 weeks behind because they don't have enough staff and not to bother calling back for 3 weeks minimum.

Hi Salimar

Just got off the phone with them and while the application is in progress it is has not been scanned yet, so they won't be able to conduct an interview.
The lady advised me to call back next week, if they haven't contacted me in the mean time.
