License Renewal cost not making sense

[u/go-figure1995]

Hey, so my PAL expired. I had to complete another paper application because it was expired more than 6 months. I just didnt think I'd ever go hunting again, but then things changed.

I have my restricted and non restricted. However, I don't have any guns. I normally just used my dad's.

I sent in the application and I wanted to do both restricted and non restricted just to keep them both, in case one day it's legal to buy a handgun.

I was charged 93.84, which is the restricted fee. And that's all that I was charged. The non restricted is like 70$, I was expecting to pay like 120$

I figured both should be charged but that's not the case.

I'm concerned that I'm only getting my restricted..

Or does having restricted exceed the non restricted and therefore I only need to pay the bigger fee which covers both licenses??

Thoughts? I've tried calling but can't get through right now.

Technically, it is the same license just with different privileges. It isn't two different licenses. So only one fee.

The RPAL costs more just because they are doing a more in depth background check.
