Firearms license Ontario

Anyone else still waiting for firearms license after 8 months?

I called ON CFO this past week. It’s been 5 months since credit card charge for me. The lady on the phone told me the average wait in Ontario right now is 9 months and to call back in 4 months if I haven’t gotten it by then. So, I’d say wait another month and then give them a call.

9 months since the credit card charge and the application showing up online is what they told me. That’s when the process has officially been started I guess.

And then DoFo refused to fund most provincial services, several people retired early and haven't been replaced.
