Does anyone know what the status is on the ATF starting eForm 4's again? I think it's been a couple years since I've heard anything about it.
So… secondary effect of the Gun buying panic of 2020.
May of 2020 I bought/submitted a stamp for a Gemtech Lunar9 (form 4/trust). As you know, the tax stamps on form 4s go to the dealer. So my form 4 was approved in October 2020. So Dealer got the stamp in October 2020 but never notified me. In May 2021 I’m in there to follow up on a lay away and the employee who went in back to get the gun asks if I’m waiting on any cans…..
TLDR 5 month ATF wait, 7 month wait for the dealer to get around to letting me know the damn stamp came in.
Yeah the dealer dropped the ball, but it's not difficult to figure out about how long the ATF should take to process the forms, and then give either the dealer or the the NFA branch or both a call, if your transfer is taking more time than that.
I finally decided to get on the suppressor band wagon and did the prints, photo, etc last week. So, 7 months(ish) on the paperwork/stamp?
That's what both the ATF and a crowdsourced site are saying.
