Don’t think 5 months from CFO is the norm at all looking at all the posted timelines. My application was received March 18th and transferred to CFO July 5th. That makes 4 weeks with CFO as of yesterday, and going on 6 months from RCMP receipt.

I’m just wondering if it’s worth trying to get through to CFO after they’ve had it for 4 weeks or if I should just wait.

I"m at 6 months wiating, Ontario.

Application received 25 Feb, charged 20 May, nothing since.

Yes 6 months from sending applicable to RCMP not from when your file got transferred to provincial CFO is what I was saying. I’m at 5 months so far, 4 weeks with CFO.
