NFA Approval after January 1

[BRTreedogs]

I had a 1/10 sub I have not heard back on yet.
E file, trust but mail in pic/prints

It does seem like the approvals are taking a little longer. Hopefully they can still keep them under a month.

I would ASSume it's initial backlog from all the people waiting for free tax stamps, which doesn't seem to bad. I would think the approval times would shorten back to real quick before too long.

Government shutdown that's looming may not help any of us waiting on approvals.

Maybe they will push everyone in cue through before shutdown? I submitted on the 20th......Hopefully any day now

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 had one get stuck for an extra three weeks the last time the Government shut down. It's all a matter of luck.

I read as of Jan.20th, 260,000 new applications were submitted...

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.

Update: My 1/18 individual submission was approved this morning 1/30. FFL was notified.

My two January 9th submissions were just approved this morning.

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.

Still waiting on approval of my 1/8 submitted Form 4.

Turns out it was approved 1/19. Neither my SOT or I were notified. He didn't know about the approval until searching for it.

So my buddy and I submitted about 17 days apart (13th to 30th). Our cn's are 500,000 apart. That comes out to about 30,000 form 4 submissions per day. If they were still getting $200 per, that's $6m per day!

A lot of people are jumping in this year.

Purchased on the 12th, certified form 4 on the 16th. Nothing. Checked in with the dealer today. Still pending.

I have heard that a number is created on each attempt, so failed attempts at submission and included. Thus real applications are lower.

I had not seen this. What is your source?

This makes some sense. So someone who has attempted 10 times will have 10 CN's but only have one of record On their form 4?
