To my fellow Albertans, I finally cracked the code on getting past the system hanging up on us.

When it asks for if you know the extension you want to reach, punch in 9026 for the Alberta CFO. I got through instantly that way after two weeks of getting hung up on on the main line.

Finally was able to get confirmation that my new licence card was mailed last week.

Thank you! I’ve been digging through trying to find the AB CFO extension here. Emailed them a few weeks ago but haven’t gotten a reply yet.
