For a rating you will need to click on “endorsement of Ratings” and then “application for flight crew permit or rating.” On this form, complete your personal information and print this form off or email it to your Authorized person. You can complete the hours section but its often recommended to do in pencil in case we find some math errors when going through the hours. Also note that the File Number and License number are the same – your 6 digit license number.

Your authorized person (often the CFI) will then also need your logbook so they can compare it to your PTR (if required) and ensure all hours are correct as well that you meet all requirements. Once they have confirmed all the hours and ensure neither has any mistakes in the times etc. the authorized person may certify your logbook if you have flown at their school. The Authorized person will need your Licence document booklet as once everything is done, they will sign off your licence and it will act as your temporary license until your new sticker comes in the mail. This is only valid for 90 days from being signed so it’s recommended that in about 2 months if your license is not in, you should call TC and see where they are in the process. Once the sticker arrives place it OVER TOP of the authorized persons signature as the sticker replaces their writing.

Next is payment. You will need to pay $30 to the Receiver General of Canada. EFC recommends paying online on the same site as above (link below as well) or a check because then you can see when it has been cashed and know that all your documents have been received and processing on TC’s end has started. Ensure if you pay online that you write in the receipt number on your application form. The last payment is to the authorized person and it’s $30 for processing our license, cash is preferred but you can also pay through the club but then it is $10 more. (this number is subject to change and may vary between authorized persons)
