I submitted a Form 1 to make a SBR via the ATF eForm 2 weeks ago. Submitted the fingerprint cards and title sheet the same day I submitted the eForm. I received an email today that says it's approved and the pdf attachment shows the form with a tax stamp image on it.
This is my first NFA item and I'm just looking for clarification that I'm good to go as far as building my SBR. I'm just surprised it only took a couple of weeks. I was expecting a couple of months at the earliest. So...I'm all set?
 
Yup.:)
I was also surprised when I got some back in seventeen days. I don’t know why it wouldn’t be instantaneous, like buying a movie on Amazon, but I’ll take it!:D

I also printed out double paper copies and saved the Tax stamp file to my hard drive.:thumbup:
 
If they are going through in 2 week I'll go buy some random whisper pickle right now.

Eform1's and 4's have different wait times. I'm sitting at day 129 on my can currently. Eform 4'd for what that's worth.

I've seen enough reports about them getting approved at our under 90 days to know I'm an outlier though.

No, the outliers are those getting approved in under 90 days.
My earliest eForm 4's took 95 days or less (January submissions). As more people file using eForms you'll see the approval times take longer.
Remember, ATF said their "target" was 90 day approvals.......as in that's what they hope they can achieve and maintain. Too many seem to think 90 days is supposed to be the norm. I have around eighty at 100 days+

The first ones we filed in late December came back in 2 months, but we still haven't seen approval on eform 4s from Jan and Feb. Seems like they rushed to get the ones filed right after it went live handled, then backed off.

But we did get paper form 4s filed in November back last week, which surprised me.
 
Must be nice… I submitted an eForm1 (using. Trust) for an SBR one on 10 March and they received my prints on 12 March. I am still waiting for my approval despite the ATF’s claim that eForm1s take an average of 60 days processing time. I also hoped that by submitting a 24 month exam prion letter that perhaps it would shave off some time, but it does not appear so. Last spring, I had two eForm1s approved in less than 45 days.
 
thanks for the confirmation.
i read that form 4s take much longer.
plan on getting a suppressor next- will get ready for a longer wait.
