Application / Regulation advice HELP with SFC .22 LR Ontario exemption letter

Has anyone in Ontario successfully received an SFC .22 LR handgun exemption letter for Olympic/bullseye shooting?

I’m from Windsor, Ontario, and I’m a member of Windsor Action Pistol Club, which offers a bullseye pistol league.

I’m trying to figure out what proof the SFC actually requires. I’ve found plenty of posts from people in BC and Alberta who were approved, but very little information from Ontario.

I currently have a .22 LR pistol that I’ve legally borrowed for six months, and I plan to use it in the club’s bullseye league. I’m just trying to understand what hoops I need to jump through before I apply.
What documents or evidence did you submit? Did they ask for proof of competition, club membership, training, or anything else?

Any advice or experiences from Ontario would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
