Anyone know what to do for the new non restricted private sale process? I’m looking at buying/selling a non restricted in the future but not sure what exactly I have to do now. Something about contacting rcmp for a reference number?

You can do it online, using the RCMP’s online portal (IWS). Look for the button under the “Licence Verification” heading.

You should already be able to log in with your PAL number, surname, date of birth, and the place of birth you specified on your original application.
