pal timeline application received may 5 cc charged June 15 approved Oct 7

called my mp 2 weeks ago. they lit a fire under the cfos ass. I'm in ontario. I'd advise you to do the same. I sent a polite email stating the wait times are bullshit and completely unacceptable. they did their thing and a boom 2 weeks later I got a call from the local cfo and was approved over the phone.
