After submitting your application:

        You should receive an email within 5-7 business days after the submission of your online application, giving you further direction on the next steps to take in the application process.

  To ensure that you receive correspondence between yourself and Canadian Armed Forces Recruiting the following is recommended:

•  Adding the email address "@forces.gc.ca" to your Safe Senders list in your email account is recommended, as there have been instances where email communications between Recruiting Detachments and applicants are filtered out and end up in the junk/spam mail folder.
•  Check your junk/spam email folder in case Forces emails continue to be filtered out.
•  Check up on the status of your application every 30 days with the Recruiting Detachment processing your application.
•  Ensure that you are checking the email account that you provided on your application.


If you have applied and have not yet received an email within 10 business days of submitting your online application, or if you would like to know the status of your application, it is recommended that you do the following:

•  Visit the link to our Forces site, ( http://www.forces.ca/en/page/contactus-73 ) and submit a status update request for your application.
•  If you know your application number, include it in the email.
•  If you do not know your application number, ensure you include your first name, last name, date of birth and the postal code of your home address. This will ensure that the recruiter who receives your email can locate your application and provide you with a status update.

Thanks MarioMike. I've saw that already. But before sending an e-mail, I was checking if there was a website where I could check that info.

I see here lots of people posting theirs samples, so I thought they were logging in somewhere to check it.

So I need to send an e-mail every time I want to check application status?

So I sent an e-mail to STG-CFRG-CustomerSVC@forces.gc.ca and they asked me to contact my recruiting center.
When I asked my recruiting center for an update on my application I've got the following response:

  Hello,
  Your is in process
  Have good day

They should make an website so applicants could check their status online without bothering recruiters with tons of e-mails.
So, I don't how you guys got your Application Process Samples. The day I have one I'll post it here. For now I'll be waiting for a call or e-mail.

  Have a good day

The "samples" are more just people keeping track of the dates they're given. If you haven't written the CFAT yet you won't have any progress to write in anyway. Once you write you CFAT and qualify for your trades then you will get more dates. It's up to you to keep track of your progress.
Goodluck in the process!

 

[b.roballo]

Thanks cac1993,

I'll be keeping track of my dates.

I've got a call this morning from my recruiting center giving me more details about the process and delays. I was not expecting that at all. It was very thoughtful of them to call, I've found.

So, they were reminding me that my process will take longer due to the fact that I was not born in Canada. I was aware of that already, but I felt they were trying to low my expectations or an eventual anxiety.

I'm looking forward to start BMQ, but I'm prepared to wait 18-24 months.

Got the call/offer today for the January 16th BMOQ while I was on break at work! [ I cannot even begin to describe how stoked and grateful I am! I'm going in as MARS DEO. More details to follow on the oath date. Does anyone know if it's possible to request for an earlier serial because my colleague is in it?

You could ask Recruiting. What's the worst they can say?

Congratulations and good luck.
