NFA Approval after January 1

Hunting buddy just got approved yesterday (1/29), submitted 1/17. Looks like approvals are running 2 weeks or so.

Yeah, I check the reddit from time to time. Looks like individual form 4s are taking about 2 weeks, trusts are 3 weeks. On average - at a glance.

It does look like it's slowing down. Just the control numbers for form 4s alone jump 20k per day.
 
I submitted 2 form 4's on the 11th and approved the 24th. I also submitted 1 form 4 on the 15th and approved the 28th. so i was at 13 days for approval. all considered this is pretty good. i did not recieve any emails from the ATF other than they were submitted. FFL was a little frustrating to deal with though getting calls that i was approved.
 
Purchased three different cans, one in September, one in October and one in November all from silencer shop. Didn't pay the $200 tax stamp waited until January. Watched the progress on silencershops page. Never received an email from the atf that any were approved, but had read somewhere that others weren't getting emails either but called their local shop that they go through and their cans were waiting on them. I called mine Wednesday and two cans were already there waiting one me and the last showed up later that afternoon. It doesn't hurt to call and reach out because neither of us had any notifications about the approval.
 
I bought a suppressor on a single shot trust in November of last year on a single shot trust. It was submitted on 1/5 and approved on 1/28.

Since buying that suppressor, I decided to move on to a traditional NFA trust. I filed to move two suppressors I already own to it on 1/5 as well as two new purchases and filings on 1/12 and 1/16. It has been radio silence on any of these for approval. Once these are approved, I'll file my last single shot trust over to the NFA trust. I don't want to file it now, just in-case they are batching them and slowing down the approval process.
