I don't understand how 4 submitted at the same time (6/17) and only 3 went through on same day 2 weeks ago. Waiting on the last one. I have a feeling this one will take awhile. Of course the one I'm waiting on is the one I will use the most.

Alright, so my new TBAC 22TD (black) for a permanent residence on my Ruger SSH 22/45 has just now been certified... We'll see how things are moving along now. It seems many of the recently certified cans are getting approved much quicker than the ones that were stuck in que for a long time. They should be familiar with me enough by now, I hope this one just slips right on through quickly.

Wild to see some of these Form 4's getting approved so quickly. I currently have a pending e-file Form 1 via Gun Trust that I've used many times since 2011. I was under the impression that E-file Form 1's were averaging 21-28 days according to most info on Reddit and Barfcom. I called this morning to check the status of mine that is now 28 days since filing and it's in 'Pending' status but he informed me that they are averaging 68 days on them at the moment.

My SOT just submitted an eForm for my latest suppressor purchase - I'd be thrilled to get the stamp back in a couple of months instead of waiting for a full year... I hope you guys are right. But you're talking about form 1, not form 4?

Form1 is the quickest one, usually measured in days or weeks. But your form4 shouldn’t take a year—average time now is getting closer to 6 months, with a lot of people recently getting lucky at only a few months.

That would be stellar. My last few cans went just over a year, but it’s been awhile.

If you purchased a suppressor, it's a Form 4. If you manufacture a suppressor, it's a Form 1. Same process essentially, just more detailed specifics on a Form 1.

Form 1s usually are faster than Form 4s. Thats been the norm forever, not to say a Form 1 can't take a year, but that would be an anomaly.
Form 4s I believe now days are averaging around 200-270 days, I don't keep up with these numbers as they just get your hopes up. At the end of the day, it is all unknowns, and you are just waiting on the government to rubber stamp your permission slip.

Yea I remember ten, eleven years ago when everything was done in just a couple of weeks to a few months max. Then we got to a year plus in the wake of Sandy Hook, eForms came on the scene promising to speed things up and then went away for a while only to return again. My last two suppressors (Form 4) took 364 days but that has since dropped to 7-9 months this year and it seems like most are now seeing 5-6 months as of late. My eForm 1 (SBR/non-factory) took less than a month, that's about right but the ATF did say the national average on those is still 68 days.

Seriously, I have no idea how that happened. I have another one certified the same day, so that will probably take a year.

Dumb question. My first 5 tax stamps were old school Form 4 paper submissions. Just filed my 6th stamp 12.01.2023 but my first Efile. What the heck does "Certified" mean?

Like was said, it’s essentially the ATF saying, “Ok, we have officially received a copy of your eForm (and trust), and we are now “cashing your check” for the $200 stamp. So we’re now going to officially start processing your paperwork.” It is essentially “Day 1” of your wait time.

So you have had two approved that you submitted on 10/6, while the one I'm waiting on was "submitted/in process" on 10/2... weird
Click to expand...
Trust me; I was very surprised they were approved that quick as well and thought it was weird too. But I’ll take it. Had another that took two years from date of purchase to approval due to a bunch of screw ups on dealers’ part
