Well, I emailed Ted Clutter on 6/29 about my draft watermark on my 6/29 "APPROVED" form 1...

I just checked back online now, and my form 1 is now back in submitted/in process status, and my approved form is gone! The finalized date has been cleared out....

Anyone else have that happen?

Normal process when removing the draft watermark. Should be soon.

3/26 Form 1 suppressor approved today by Jason Bowers, no draft watermark.

98 days start to finish. My first stamp. Can't think of a better way to spend my 4th than building my first suppressor :)

You can do a new application with the errors fixed, pay the $200 again, then send an email to Ted Clutter and he should approve them.

Make sure you give Ted both app numbers and tell him you are re submitting

Posted: 7/5/2015 7:28:25 PM EDT

Had the same thing happen. Just fix it and Email Ted Clutter and he will fix it. Just have to pay another $200.00

Believe it or not, I emailed Clutter Saturday expecting a reply Monday.

Heather Thompson emailed me back two hours later...on the Fourth of July...with instructions on how to proceed.

On the Fourth of July!

I try not to dwell on it too much but, aside from infringing on my rights and making me pay $200.00 each time, the wait is pathetic. It seems that it should be no slower than a NICS check.
I went and renewed my TSA frequent traveler and HAZMAT and had my Federal clearance letter back in less than 3 weeks.
Although I love to read the excitement among the thread when ARF members are approved, at some point I hope all applicants/citizens and members will learn that the ATF is not doing them a favor by allowing them to sbr or suppress a weapon.

Proper punctuation is required for approval.

Happens all the time.

I even had two Disapproved on a Sunday, then emailed the Program Director to point out it was their mistake, and heard back from a Section Chief before the day was over admitting their mistake and new forms were inbound (in my Inbox when I woke up on Mon).

My e-filed Form 1 that was submitted on 4/2 is still pending. This is my first time venturing into NFAland and I'm starting to get concerned. I called the NFA number and was basically told 5-6 months is the average and just have to wait.

Update:
Guess I should have waited until the end of the day before I posted.

Just had my 4/7 approved. Jason frushour or whatever. I wish he did batch approvals. Lol has anyone emailed clutter or asked the experts why some do batch approval and others don't? Lol I wish I could have got my form 1 for m92 approved at same time.
