OK, so in this thread I told all of you folks about how I submitted a F1 with a misspelled trust name.

That F1 was submitted 9/29/14.  It came back Disapproved on 10/3/14.  I emailed with Ted Clutter during the interim.

On 10/4/13 I "resubmitted" the F1 (new application in reality).  Today, just now, on a lark I log into eForms to see what's going on, and lo and behold, there's an Approved in there!

Submission date, 10/4/14.  Approved date 10/6/14.  TWO DAYS!!  Or, considering the original application, EIGHT DAYS!!!

Now, the PDF I downloaded from eForms for this has DRAFT watermarked across it; what's that mean?  Is it "official" with DRAFT on it?

Sure looks that way.

But what's this with DRAFT watermarked on every page of the form?

You're not quite in the clear. It's a known defect...happened to every one of mine so far.

Send an email to [email protected] with "EForms DRAFT watermark" as the subject. Provide your control number, serial number and the applicant name. Then just a sentence saying your approved form has the Draft watermark. They'll reissue your Approved form, probably tomorrow. Date will change to the current date, and you may even have a different examiner.

Technically you're approved. I just wouldn't want my copy to have the DRAFT watermark.

(You can follow the same process using Ask The Experts if you prefer.

Submitted for my first ever NFA item on 9.15 and nothing yet.  This last 3 weeks has been a horrible waiting experience.  I can't imagine what the next 4-5 months on my suppressor is going to be like.

I've waited over a year for some of mine.... You learn to be patient, and submit a bunch of forms... So some are getting approved all the time.

Exactly.. some of you guys are moaning about 3 weeks? or a few months?  Wowwwww...

It's probably a good thing that the wait takes that long.. otherwise I'd be full-in-debt over NFA purchases if I believed that they had a quicker turn-around time.

Well, the fine folks at NFA branch got my approved F1 de-watermarked today.

From start to finish (including the original mis-spelled form) getting this stamp took 10 whole days.

Amazing.

Don't even have a short upper yet!

I just dropped three lowers off at the engraver on Tuesday.  I have most of the parts for each, but I really wasn't expecting the quick turnarounds as of late and the suppressors will be way behind...

Well, I guess my life isn't all unicorns and rainbows; I do have a F4 pending since 7/7 for a can.

BUT, my 11.5 upper will be here THURSDAY if UPS does their part.

My guess is volume has significantly increased due to how fast they've been recently. I wouldn't be surprised if 5 to 6 weeks becomes the new norm. Still pretty damn fast.

Not so sure.  You might be right, but I would speculate that there are WAY more people wanting silencers than SBR/SBS, etc, and the paper forms suck ass.  Again, just a wild guess, but I think we're GTG with these 30-ish day Form 1 trusts.  Some under, some over, but none are taking 60 days or anything crappy.  Unless things start trending upward, and in a hurry, we might we looking at these time frames for a while.

Get 'em while they'er hot!

Going on 5 weeks here.  It is my very first NFA item so the wait is like Christmas.  But not complaining at all.  I'm enjoying it!

I'm cool with 5-6 weeks. My first was a 4 month paper form and that's still being spoiled compared to the 9-12 months they were. Of course I prefer 30 days though...

My very first E-stamp got emailed with "Draft" watermark but when I downloaded it the next day it did not have it.  Every E-stamp since (3 more) were mailed correctly.
