atf eform form 1

[greyling22]

So I just filed my form 1 with eform. not the most user friendly experience, but it could have been worse.
this website was helpful https://www.realgunreviews.com/how-to-e-file-an-atf-form-1-with-eforms/

couple things to note, at the end, where you pay with a credit card, you have to have your popup blocker disabled. also, when I called the atf, they said that eforms were being processed in 5-30 days!!!!! holy moly. hopefully I filled out all my stuff right and don't get rejected.

I was approved this morning. So that's what, 18 days for approval from the time I hit the submit button. I mailed my fingerprints 2 days later. Now that's how the nfa should be working. (You know, since we apparently cannot repleal the nfa or do instant checks like buying a gun)

That is excellent news! Hopefully the reduced waits will encourage more people to venture into NFA and NFA items will become more mainstream.

Before they stopped the e-forms (and reinstated them) I got setup and after the first one I was like, 'this is a breeze' and did them on my lunch breaks haha.

Downloaded a passport photo app for my phone, took a picture, printed it at Walgreens for 40 cents.

Can you tell me the name of the app?

I was wondering if you had to mail them in with fingerprints? or does the efile has some way of you adding them to it....

Passport photo editor is what I used. it was free for Android from the google play store. I printed and mailed for my form 4, but for the form 1 I was able to upload it to the atf along with my trust and other associated docs.
All I had to mail in was my fingerprints and the cover page they emailed me after I submitted.

Do you not have to notify your local CLEO now? Do they take care of that?

I filled out a responsible person form and uploaded it to the atf and a copy to the sheriff
