CFR system learning some new tricks...
Hi everyone,
I just had an interesting little chat with my local DFO. I submitted an application about three weeks ago for a new license. I was informed by the DFO ( which I confirmed this morning with having a look at the receipt for new applications at provincial) that the application arrived at Provincial last week and Thursday.
I asked the DFO to check on my boss' application status since he is also awaiting some form of feedback on his own license application. Strangely, his application is nowhere to be found on the system. I asked him to check on the status of mine as well since I never received my SMS's confirming the entry into the system as well as the arrival of the application at Provincial (I always receive SMS's regularly so I found this strange).
To my surprise, mine was also not reflecting on the system. Now the DFO is phoning provincial to find out what is going on.
Has anyone else had this issue lately/before? How does this affect the process now? If it arrives at CFR and it is not on the system, what do they do with it? I don't think they will process it now, or will they? FWIW, I do know for a fact that it was captured on the system by the DFO since I was there to watch.
Regards
Werner

Re: CFR system learning some new tricks...
I applied in October and received initial sms from DFO, I never received a sms from Provincial.
I called CFR last week to find out status and they said it's at Provincial.

Re: CFR system learning some new tricks...
i had this exact issue about 18 months ago. my application got lost for about 4 months. Turns out my app had gone to Pretoria but was never captured by my DFO hence them not picking it up the system. I eventually had to get hold of GOSA legal team for help

Re: CFR system learning some new tricks...
Handed in app 2nd October 2017, got the DFO sms the same day, and nothing since... Not even bothering to phone, 3rd January 2018 if I don't have the white card in hand, I will be doing a payment to Clarke from GOSA (again) to deal with them.. Sad part is that I've had to use her in 3 of the last 4 applications :(

Re: CFR system learning some new tricks...
Submitted 2 applications beginning of October 2017.
The 1st application "Receiving attention of DFO" SMS came through 22 Nov 2017; 51 days after submitting the application.
The 2nd application the DFO told me he captured it but CFR says he hasn’t; havnt received the SMS from DFO.
56 working days / 77 days since I submitted the applications and the applications are still at DFO according to CFR.
Frustrating.
