Does anyone know what kind of info to include in my email to my provincial CFO (BC)about moving? I’m moving within the province and only have one restricted, if that makes any difference in the email. I’ve never moved before with guns before so trying to do this the right way and not cause wait times emailing back and forth to get all my ducks in a row. Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks (:

You're supposed to indicate when (the dates) you are moving and from what address to which new address so they can issue an ATT that covers the things.

Thanks bud! Do I need to indicate I’ll have a restricted and give them the serial # or no as they have on file I own said restricted firearm, If you know?

They know you have a restricted. Just ask for an ATT because you are moving. You don't need an ATT for non restricted, and they already know how many restricted you have and which ones.
