My RPAL was just approved:

Timeline is:

  • reached RCMP (signed for) - April 11th
  • processing started - July 11th (+3 months)
  • approved today - July 26th (+15 days)

I plan to call and ask for the number, so I can get some purchases in motion. Now, I'm crossing my fingers for a rhino 60DS not in some garish colour to show up.

Did you get hit by a letter asking for another $3.23 On top of the 80 you already paid?

No, I paid by CC. I felt this was the least risky for the process, as well as giving my an indication when my application started process.
