Just a word of warning to everyone.. TRIPLE CHECK YOUR APPLICATION!! I forgot to fill out my place of birth. My CC was charged on july 20th, i didnt end up mailing the missing info back to them until Aug 10th. Just phoned the rcmp and was told theyre still working on return mail from may.. so that sets me back about 3 more months RIP
