Update On Ontario Restricted Transfer Times

[Chuckbuster]

Here I was. So full of hope after that last comment. Thanks for the healthy dose of reality!

Haha! Well, don't despair...maybe they just dropped my name on the floor while moving the pile to the rubber stamp desk...just like MNR has been doing with my doe tag applications for the last 6 years.

Well, that’s interesting. It’s still crickets for my June 1 transfer.

A member a few posts up from mine had his June 8 NB to ON approved today. Not sure how the 'batch' them but you may want to call in and ask.

Just got off the phone with the Ontario CFO. They said that they're now fully staffed and working on the backlog. They're currently working on the second week of June and told me that my June 26 transfer would be done by next week for sure. Great news!

More like they're working on June 2019 transfers....

Outstanding. I have one from June 26th as well.

I finally got a hold of them. They said "it's been sent to Ottawa for further consideration" whatever that means and I was told to check back with them in a week.

Hmm, what does that mean? I had an email come in today for a May 25-August 5 private AB-ON transfer. A little over 10 weeks again. I'm crossing my fingers they do get the backlog cleared up soon.

Finally
May 21 approved August 5
Private Ont to Ont

I purchased from a store June 3 and it was finally approved August 4.

Keep the updates coming. The communication adds to the transparency.

Waiting on 28 May. It's so close, I can feel it in my plums

 

[sin3rgy]

Hmm interesting...I've got a June 10 transfer waiting for approval. Some hope I'll see it next week

 

[dirty_lyle]

I actually just got the notification, it was 27 May and it went through today. Judging by the last few replies before mine, they are indeed catching up to the backlog

Hope so, I have one from middle of June I'm waiting for, didn't even want it but took it on trade, i want to sell it but need to wait.
They should have a section under pistols similar to real estate,,,, coming soon

Just got a notification Ontario to Ontario private sale May 26th to August 5th, 10 weeks 1 day, slightly better than my last one at 11 weeks.

May 13th to Aug 4th. Person to person from Sask to Ont. Got the email at 7:45 pm too. Kinda odd time.

Maybe working OT?

Maybe working OT?

It would appear so which would definately account for them catching up with the backlog.

Probably not. It’s somewhat of a known issue that the Ontario CFO’s email system has some serious delays sending emails to certain providers. I got a transfer notification at 3:30 AM this morning and have gotten ATTs at weird hours like that too, after being told the ATT was sent right away on the phone.

May 28 -> August 06 :: 70 days

 

[.30/06 FTW]

Just got another one that was 66 days. Also when I called for an ATT they said they are aware of the delay with Gmail addresses. Although the 2nd one I got today came through quick as did the ATT.

Just got an emailed transfer notification for one initiated on June 8.
