Ok, about a month ago i submitted my very first form 4 for a suppressor.  Last week I noted that my check has been cashed by the NFA.

Is this a good indicator that there was no major errors with the application?
And that said form has passed the/any primary screening?

Or do they cash it prior to even looking at them at all?

It's only a sign that they received your paperwork, tore out the check, cashed it, and threw your application in a giant pile of other applications.



Seriously - It has nothing to do with your paperwork.  Try to forget about it.  Call the ATF in a month or a little more to confirm a pending date (simply means your form is in the system and has been given to an examiner), and then forget again.




I have one form pending right now.

This is the only time in which wishing me a Merry Christmas made me think, "Oh, hell no!"  I'm hoping for a Happy Halloween!  ::pumpkin::

Ok, thanks for the replies guys.

I had kind of hoped that there may have been some kind of preliminary review to look for major screw ups or such.
