It can be tricky to get through to an agent. Keep trying.

How long ago was your transfer submitted? Seems like Alberta needs about 3 weeks. If it is less then 3 weeks, you may just want to wait.

I really hope I will get to enjoy that absolute euphoria one day, but with an old peace bond idk, reading people getting approved makes me feel real envious.

Meanwhile the federal number told me to wait months.. So it’s obviously moved over to the provincial side for approval and they decide what they wanna do

Did the agent hang up? Or did the automated system hang up. It happens, just keep trying.
