Anyone have any idea how long it would take RCMP to look at my application again after mailing it back for fixed errors/corrections? I mailed it more then a full business week ago now and its clearly marked as a RCMP return letter. Like would it be more then two weeks kinda thing, should I just call and see if they can pull it up and we can finish getting it approved? Because they should definitely have it in NB by now and I've been waiting over a year which they know as well.

I'm so close and it would be the most disappointing thing if it sits there for another couple months when all they have to do is take a quick look at two corrections and then its done.

Good luck, I had to send a new photo in March 2022( Originally sent in January2022) and then update my address in June, I was only approved at the start of this month.

progress was only made on my application when I called them at the times they told me to call back (even when I was told 1-2 more months it took another 6 in total)
