Any idea how long the wait is after my pal application has been assigned to an officer ? Obviously its different for everyone but recent time lines would be appreciated. I've heard 3 things from them over the past week. Call back in a month from the 1 800 number and pressing 5, 9 months from generic email from cfo-on , and its been assigned to an officer call back in 2 months but expect 9 month delay from calling the 1800 ext 7503. In ontario.

I found that CFOON responds to email, I didn't get my flintlock but I did get a response.
