Anyone get their PAL/RPAL in Ontario recently? My application arrived Nov 13, 2020, CC charged Mar 23, 45 days for processing fell on May 4th, still says in progress.

Called and was told it was at Ontario’s CFO, everything was done at the CFP.

First time applicant and I applied for an RPAL.

how can you tell when they receive it? I just brought my envelope to Canada post with a stamp on it. Didn't get a tracking number

You would have had to bring it without a stamp and pay for Xpresspost so it would have tracking and get there quick.
