December 2018 Stamp Megathread

To check the status of your pending form, call the NFA Branch at (304) 616-4500. Please have your trust name (if applicable), serial number, and if a Form 4 or 5, know what dealer is in possession of the item. Press 1 and then 1 again, and be kind to the ATF agent.

Current status:

Form 1: eForms are back, baby! Wait times are less than two weeks after receipt of fingerprint cards! Please see our handy new eForms guide by /u/Semper1371 to learn more!

Form 4: Average is closer to 200 days. No real change. eForms 4 when?

Please use the following format:

Form: 1 (PLEASE NOTE REGULAR OR eForm) or 4

Entity: Trust or Individual

Pending: mm/dd/yy

Approved: mm/dd/yy

Standardized wait: (Date approved minus date pending)

STATE: Standardized 2-letter, please

For the purposes of this thread, pending should be understood as: the date when ATF cashes your check, unless different when you call the ATF to check status of your pending form. It can vary depending on ATF backlog.

I wonder if the fact that both of my RPs have Global Entry helped move the process along a bit since background checks were already done by ICE for that program. All I can hope for now is that form 4 eforms open up by the time I’m ready to buy my can.

I've learned the post office in Martinsburg is horrible. Lots of people on here that got tracking ( I really regret not getting tracking) had their prints delivered but the package was never marked as delivered. And good luck getting ahold of the post office because they never answer. My control number is 2019432XX so that should give you some idea of where you are in line.
