Updated Ontario RPAL timeline:

  • Received by RCMP June 17, 2022
  • CC charge September 2, 2022
  • License issued November 23, 2022
  • January 27th, 2023 called CFP as I hadn't received my PAL, found out that due to a data entry mistake by CFP, confirmed by CFP as their mistake, license request to be reprinted was submitted due to missing apartment number
  • February 10, 2023, called CFP - license still not reprinted, was told no priority can be assigned, "should be printed within 3-4 weeks"
  • Time since CC charge: 6 months

What a competent, efficient, and fast government service. Really awesome.
