I bought via private sale. Seller finally got through to the CFP June 9th and got the reference. I finally got through June 14th to complete the transfer and registration with CFP. Yesterday, seller called the Ontario CFO and was told it will take 3 months or so for them to sign off on it.

3 months.

Well, if I’m lucky, I’ll have the new RPAL card with ATT and registration certificate by then...

Don't believe their numbers. They give long times to manage expectations. It will be longer than Ontario's normal 4 weeks though.
