Mod edit: we'll use this thread as our running tracker for 5320.20 forms. Please make a note as to whether you mailed, emailed, or faxed your forms. DO NOT post until approval is received.
I submitted on 5/12, wondering if I'll get it back in time for CWTII. Not much info in the approvals thread, and I couldn't find anything in NFA Tracker. |

Submitted 4/14. Haven't seen anything in the mail yet. Getting nervous, as I'm heading out of state for the Memorial Day holiday and would like to bring SBRs with me.
Called NFA branch this morning and they told me that my forms are still pending. Apparently travel forms are currently taking 45+ days to clear. 45 days from my submission date will be next Monday. Guess the in-laws may have to make due with just suppressed pistols. Made a note on my calendar to submit my forms for 2018 on 12/1 this year. |

Sent forms for 10 states, 11 firearms on each form. Got 5 forms back today. Not sure if they're screwed up when they printed them out, or if the other 5 will show up later. Called NFA Division today and the lady couldn't really tell me anything, so she transferred me to Jason Bowers (examiner who approved them)...straight to voicemail. Guess we'll see how this goes. ETA 11/6/17: It's been a week and no sign of my other five forms. Finally got a call back from Jason today and he says all 10 were definitely approved. Request for Certified Copies was emailed in today. ETA: 11/15/17: copies (no certified stamp on them) arrived 11/13/17 |
