Got lucky I guess, the call dropped twice after about 10 minutes on hold. Then I got through to someone after 30 minutes on hold on my 4th call (one after another). Sounds like I’m at the “photo processing” stage that I’ve seen a couple others on here at. Funny your credit card was charged before mine and my application was received sooner haha. Was yours just an RPAL application?

Glad to hear you got through! My application was for non-restricted PAL. I was also told I was at the photo processing stage - hopefully that means not too much longer!

Yeah hopefully! Your credit card has been charged though eh?
