FAC/PAL?? lost paperwork, found years later

[Eel]

I completed my courses way back in 98 when I was still in high school and didn't have the paperwork with me to send in. I called in to the firearms hotline this October and asked the nice lady what I should do and if there was any way that I could get a copy of my papers from 98 so I can send in my Pal application. She asked for my name and address at the time and a few clickety clacks later, she told me that everything was already on file. I never sent in any papers to the gov't (that I recall anyway) and they had them on file. I believe that the instructors send in a copy of their exams/documents for each of the students that they send through. All I had to do was fill out my Pal application and put on the sheet "on file" where they ask for a copy of your course. Once you have done your paperwork, it doesn't expire so you are good to go. Here is the numbers for the Fire Arms hotline for the RC's
General Inquiries: 613-993-7267
TTY: 613-825-1391
Fax: 613-993-0260

Give them a call and see if it's on file already. If not, just send in the papers you have already and your are set.
