2026 OFSC PERMITS

[PISTON LAKE CRUISER]

I received the 2 permits today that I had ordered  at the same time on Oct. 17th. I paid for shipping and processing on both permits as well as tracking. Both permits were mailed in one envelope. I haven't received my Visa bill yet to confirm the amounts I got charged but it looks to me like I may have paid for postage twice and tracking twice for one envelope. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Seems more weird to me that your visa doesn't show the purchase and/or it not having been processed since October 17th?

Same registered owner of the sleds?  Or different owners (husband and wife)?  I know I got charged twice.  But wife owns one sled and I own the other (on paper anyways).  I expect 2 envelopes.  It’s a good question.

I don't do anything online with Visa and haven't received my October statement yet in the mail.

Same owner for both.

I just noticed that my permit numbers were 12958 and 12959. Since I purchased them on Oct. 17th it appears they sold less than 13000 permits in the first 1/2 month.

I believe the fee for tracking and processing is per permit.

He gets that, his point is they went into the same envelope, 1 shipping fee and one tracker, paid for 2

When I ordered two permits they did that to me too. Had to pay seperate tracking fee no way around it. At least he got permits.

After I read your post I went back and checked my emails including my sled folder and deleted Emails. I didn't receive any emails from the OFSC regarding my permit purchase.

Just first one was midnight Nov 1. Still have opportunity to get in on next round before full price hits. Can still save 50 bucks. I didn't buy yet either. Last month I blew over 100 grand 🤣. 
i figured I wait and help cause abit by paying more 👌

Permit numbers have nothing to do with the amount sold, they are sent out randomly at a specific run number. This is to combat counterfeit (mto) permits.

 

 Its been indicated  that permit sales for the early bird, has been succesful.

I received my purchase email but, not the shipping confirmation or tracking email/info. Did anyone get tracking info, that paid/asked for it? Ski

[RAMSOMAIR]

Ordered ours on the 28th. I understand they batch process, it's been over a week... For the fees they charge, you would think they would process them in a timely manner. Ski

I believe they only send out a tracking number once the permit is in the hands of the courier

Why not by 2 at the lower price and support the sport and increase number of permits purchased?
