Application Received February 16, 2022

Cc Charged May 17th, 2022 (initial review done the same day)

When I call RCMP for my application status they say that it is with CFO and when I call CFO for Saskatchewan they say that my application is still with a support group RCMP at Miramichi. It has been going on for about a month now.

Today I found out the name of the person who has my application. So, I called RCMP and told them the issue that I am having, according to RCMP the person who has my file is CFO.

I am kind of confused now. Can anybody with a better understanding of this process help me understand this?

Thanks!

Pretty much… you could try and reach out to your provinces CFO and inquire more(as you stated CFP/RCMP said CFO has your file application now) , not sure if that helps speed anything up. I wish you all the best though, hope you get it sooner then later!
