NFA Approval after January 1

[Chanimal]

Did the ATF clean up the email notifications? I have a can in jail now, and wondering if I should count on an email notification or if I should be following up with my SOT.

 

[AZ Gator]

I don’t think there is any definitive update on that. I feel like it is improved towards more people receiving emails.

 

[BRTreedogs]

Well unfortunately my suspicion was correct.
My SOT didn’t send off my prints on time and that’s why I’m not approved.

I do wish it was running quicker for the trust but I'll still probably go that route for my next can vs personal.

What exactly are you guys saying is your start date/submitted date?

I purchased on silencer shop on 2/20, got notified everything silencer shop does to get my can to my local dealer including shipping on 3/15. Talked with local shop and they submitted form4 3/16 and I received confirmation from eforms that I’m now submitted/in process on 3/16. This is a trust and my first purchase. I’m assuming when folks say “submitted” on this days they are referring to the form 4 to atf date? So I should expect a few week turnaround?

Filed as Individual, gay boyz received paperwork 3/11, parole granted 3/17.

I find that level of overreach more acceptable than the 10 month wait for my first can back in the day.

Yes, the date atf receives your form 4 submission.

I’ve heard it actually takes longer if you’ve ever held a high security clearance.

This is correct. Its been verified, from both side, countless times.

However, there is a work around for those with TS and up.

Really? This hasn’t been my experience.
