Hello,

First, let me state that I am trying to be patient.  I have done a Form 1 and I know patience is important, but this is getting quiet disconcerting.

I sent my Form 4 for a suppressor on 21 Feb and it was received in Atlanta 24 Feb.  The check has not been cleared.  Is this an inordinate amount of time to be waiting for check to clear or is this the norm.  I am starting to worry that something has been lost..

Thanks

You're screwed and you'll never see that $200 or your suppressor!  Lol.  Give it another week or three...they are wayyyyyyy behind and all transfers are taking like 6 mo.  Keep checking with your bank to see if the check has been cashed.

I mailed a form1 FEB20 and they have not cashed my check either.  They are completely overwhelmed.  I've had them take up to a month in the past.  NO idea what happens now with their " new streamlined process ".

ETA: Woops! I Spoke too soon . My bank is just NOW saying my 200$ check is pending payment now.  So at least I know they got my Application.  Yours should not be far behind mine.

I wouldn't worry about it. I've had forms be approved and mailed back to me before I had the check cashed. Not normal, but some times it can take a long while.

Are you 100% sure that your bank hasn't cleared payment?  It is no longer shown as a normal check cashing at your bank.  The ATF now electronically transfers the funds, which just shows as a simple $200 debit out of your account.

Thanks for the replies...

To  be honest, I have no idea if the ATF has transferred the funds.  i will check on it.

I mailed 2 form 1s on 3/14/12
Check cashed 3/27/12

So, yeah, that's a bit long compared to my form 1s
I don't know if it means anything though

I had a Form 1 get there 3/2 Check cashed 3/12 and went pending 3/30.



When it came out of my bank, it said ATF NFA PAYMENT, when it came out.

Just for the record, I've been submitting forms to NFA branch since 2001 and I've never called them about it, or been called.
