PAL status seems stuck in limbo since January. I will call them again but what is up with the delay? Anyone else in the same boat? The last I heard it was sitting on the desk of the CFO in Ontario.

I would recommend contacting the Ontario CFO’s office.

Did you answer “Yes” to any of the personal history questions? That can result in a 12+ month delay.

Yes I did. That's what I figure is a bit of a hold up but not sure if it's normal or not. I figured they would have sent documents requesting more information by now.
