Anyone else waiting on an approval for the 18 or 19th of Dec? I see people here getting approved 12/20-26.... just want to know how long I should wait before I give them a call.

I get to be pretty impatient when I shell out $200 and people get approved before me that submit after me.

Yeah, I'm still waiting on a form 1 that was submitted on the 19th of December.

Was looking at NFA tracker and it seems like it should have been approved by now

I am in the same boat as you guys, I filed 12/19 and still have not been approved. I am getting agitated and worried a glitch in their system is screwing us.

That's exactly what I was thinking... I left a voice-mail about 10 mins ago with them, I will let you all know what I find out.

If you want to call them the # is (304)-616-4500

I assume you have logged into the sight and aren't just waiting for the email.  I've had a form approved without getting the email, but it showed up online.

still says submitted.. only reason I made this thread is it seems there is allot more people than just me that filed on the 19 that haven't received a stamp.

I have logged onto the eform site and it still shows Submitted/In process and no finalized date. This is not my first form 1 through  efile, the last one from last march went through no problem and was approved timely.

Sounds like it's time to email Mr. Clutter.  He normally fixes problems pretty quick.

They aren't done FIFO in the way you imagine as far as I know with the new system.  Last I knew an examiner would get a block of applications to work on so if you got put at the end of a block versus the beginning yours could take longer.

It's only been 40 calender days so I would chill out.  My last e-Form Form 1 took 5 months.

Yup waiting on one submitted on 19th of Dec. Still says submitted in process online.

Waiting on one on the 19th as well. Of course I'm still waiting on my DSG 10" upper anyway, odds are that will still be a while....

I e-filed on 12/23 and was "initially" approved 1/27.  The reason I say initially is my form 1 had the "Draft" watermark on it.  I emailed Ted and the general ATF email address about this later in the day on 1/27 as people have said this gets corrected in a few hours.  Late on 1/27, my form went from "Approved" back to "Submitted/In Process" and still shows that way.  What happened to my approval and am I approved or not???

I read about this same thing happening and it got re approved two days w/o the water mark.

I'd bet money some one from the "general" email got it before Ted did.

Looks like I just slipped past the bottleneck.  Filed Form1 Trust 12/18 with approval on 1/21.  I was surprised with the turnaround given the Christmas and new years holiday.  Hopefully everyones 12/19 and later submissions are approved soon.  
Good Luck!

My last one was submitted 12/23 and approved 1/23. The 2 before that went 32 and 33 days before approval. I will add, 2 of the 3 I received no email, I just started checking the site every day and there they were. Good luck.

I let him know there was more than a few of us in the email I sent him so hopefully if there was some sort of error they can look back on the submissions for the 19th to see if any were missed.

I as well sent a similar email and no response or change in status.

I sent him an email on a Thursday a few weeks back... he didn't get back to me until that Sunday.

I am sure he is getting slammed with emails, fixing DRAFT approvals, etc., etc.

Don't forget people take extra time off for the holidays. If yours is sitting in the files of someone who flew home for the week to see the folks, it's gonna slow things down.

How do you know who your examiner was? And is there a way to find out who examines Oregon?

Examiner name is at the bottom of your form. Forms are no longer assigned by state.

Its been a week now and I still haven't gotten my approved Form 1 with the "DRAFT" watermark fixed.  Hell its gone back to a status of "Submitted/In-Process" since last Tuesday.  I emailed Ted twice and he can't seem to get it corrected either.  Said it will require some additional work.

Damn, that really sucks!!

They all need to have re-training on this whole "DRAFT" watermark issue.

I'd call the ATF number if I were you. Shocked Ted "the fixer" couldn't get you taken care of!

I got approved today from 12/29 also. By chance did yours still have the draft mark on it? Mine did and I emailed clutter but haven't heard back yet.  

 



Now I gotta do a few more.

The one that came with the email had a huge draft watermark diagonal across the middle. It's been signed and checked approved.  I logged into efile and its the same story. Changed from pending to approve but still the draft mark. According to google its a pretty common thing and to email Ted and he will take care of it. Just wondered since we applied and approved same dates.  Can't really tell who signed but looks like J something M L something
