Default Fresh off the press.....

Well here you go guys, you make up your own minds:

On June 03, 2020 I sent my PAL renewal application in by registered mail, with a money order enclosed. My birthday is October, plenty of time right!

As of this writing Sept 26, 2020, I have still not received any communication/explanation; ZERO; regarding my mail-in application or my money order.

So I called in and spoke to a fellow by phone. He told me that, any PAL renewals applied for in June, is still not yet being processed.

So, I asked him what to do? He said go on-line and redo my PAL application as it is much faster. He assured me my money order would be refunded once they get it.

On Sep 11, 2020 I followed his advice and re-applied on-line.
On Sept 24, 2020 I received my new PAL renewal in the mail.

So for those of you who have no options other than snail mail, then sorry for your luck. But if not, then on-line PAL application is the only way to go... IMHO...

Good luck,

Heads up: the "new" application process is a lower priority and slower than the "renewal" process... according to the Miramichi guy I spoke with.
