Looks like BATFE is closing in on the 41F July 2016 deluge of submissions.Got my 6/18 form1 back yesterday...
Looks like BATFE is closing in on the 41F July 2016 deluge of submissions.
So this chart is from the NFA tracker site. I annotated it to show what's going on:
Notice the obvious ramp in wait times starting early 2016. 41F was published in January 2016. The increasing wait times suggests that the # of applications was rising each month in the first half of Jan 2016. And then we get to the pre-41F deadline in July. I'm sure you all are aware (or even participated) in the mad rush in July. We're going to need a new chart, because the days to approval are going to spike up.
Maybe it's different for Form 4's, but the pattern is pretty clear for Form 1's. The chart above is for Form 1 trusts paper filing. The spike in the months leading up to the July deadline is even more obvious in the chart for Form 1 trusts efiled.Not sure I agree, I've been following the tracker on form 4s, and they're starting to level out at 260 days. It's kind of cool when I refresh I see the cluster of dots that come in. Mine will be one of them within two weeks if the trend holds.
Jeremy emailed me yesterday that my stamp has been received. Sadly, due to my own situation, I can't pick up my Optimus until after the 24th ... /cryForm 4 trust - Check cashed 06/01/16 - Approved 02/16/17 ... waiting on stamp.
And the answer I've never been able to find is whether they're sequential, or if they skip numbers like credit card companies do.Just peeked at the two Efiled F1's I have ...one submitted on Jul 4 and one on Jul 11. There is about 7,500 forms in between the two , accoring to the difference in the two serial numbers.
I will not live long enough to have mine approved....................... AAARRGGGHHH.
Turned 62 1/2 on 3/2. I'd like to shoot one of them before I'm too damn old to hold the rifle up.............You're not old enough that you have to think hard about buying green bananas, are you?
And the answer I've never been able to find is whether they're sequential, or if they skip numbers like credit card companies do.
And if there's only one "stack" of numbers being assigned, so that 7,500 could include a bunch of F2s, F3s, F6s, F6As, etc...or is there a different formatting for each form.
I dun shoulda listened to you guys who were telling me to file last January instead of waiting until the July deadline.SO got bunch a whole stack of stamps, all were dated late May up to June 17th. Approved Mid March 2017.
Sources tell me wait time will jump in the next week or so to 12 months and maybe to 18 months. They have close to 400k forms sitting in the queue waiting to be processed that all hit right before 41F.
My Thunderbeast was one of the ones Shawn got back. YooHoo.
