Sent in RPAL (BC) application on June 1st (One hour after reading the first article about the transfer ban lol). Website does not show my application as having been received. I already have my PAL and was wondering what everyone else's experience was with applying for the license from BC.

Also, I attached my restricted course proof of passing, but for the non-restricted course, I wrote that I had passed already ie I have my PAL and that they have it on file. Does anyone else have an experience similar to mine with this?

I sent mine at the end of April, and theres nothing yet, you won't see it until your card gets charged, probably about 3 months
