Wait time after returning corrected form?

Post by Modeler »

So I made an error on my Form 1 when I sent it in back in December. Got it back on Saturday, corrected the error and mailed it off yesterday. Anyone know how long it's taking to get corrected forms approves and returned currently?

Thanks. It would have been faster to cancel the paper Form 1 and reapply via E-commerce.

My first sbr and sbs I had issues, corrected them (I put my name rather than just the trust name), 2 weeks later got them back w another new issue (I changed something other than the original issue-I put caliber multi on the sbr. Ironically, it had 12ga and the sbs had 5.56), 3 weeks later I got it back. Bit that was 2 years ago.

Thanks all. The problem is with the Trust name, the ATF interpreted my Trust Name to include the date it was signed. Which is silly. It's been that way for a while, but I just put the whole thing (name and date) on my Form 4's because, really, who cares? Except with this one they wanted me to engrave the whole thing, trust name and date on my SBR. Which I'm not going to do. So I amended the trust as directed by my Attorney and sent it back. Something similar happened a few years ago on my first Form 4 (I didn't include the date), back then it only took a couple weeks. I assume it's taking longer now.

Well, that was quick. It arrived at the NFA Branch on Friday 8/22, was approved Tuesday 8/26 and arrived in my mailbox today, Saturday 8/30. Not too shabby, although I could have done without the coffee stain.
