ATF E-Forms Submission wait time

People have been saying it depends on the examiner also. Some want anLTC and some haven't cared.

I sent copies of LTC's for all my trustees. Mine may get kicked backed because I used my PO box. Been two weeks and I haven't gotten a response to my email yet.

How do you know that it was approved without the email? All 3 of mine I was notified by email and the approved form was attached. If you log in you eForms you can download them from there as well.

Went to the website and it gives me a the completion date and it shows up in the aproved column. When I called the ATF I ask why I never recived an email they told me to send a request to ask the experts. When I log in none of my previous aproved forms are there, that's why I thought it was strange I never got an email like in the past.

Clicked on the view and they are there, just printed but still does not explain why I did not receive any emails.
 
I usually get an email, but in the case of the last item, I was not notified either.

Interesting thing happened to me from January to February, my last stamp came back as denied or "disapproved" as they call it. I fell into the "we just want the caliber stated as 5.45 or 7.62, no x39 or anything else". Even though the form says "Specify" and the pre-populated drop down boxes inside E-forms list full calibers with no option to type in just the prefix. I called and spoke with my inspecting agent and explained the issue, and also notified the experts crew.

Re-submitted, waiting again.
 
I'm currently waiting on two and will submit another two next month. I login and check status every day. At least once sometimes twice just to be sure.

Ok, went on line thinking I could download a copy of the stamp, and all I can find when I click on the "approved form 1" is a listing of the ID # and the permit #and date filed/approved. Am I missing something, or do they mail me the stamp?

Click the button to view it, then another button to download the form

But they should have attached a PDF to your approval email

They have never mailed anyone a physical form with stamp after using the Eforms system. The approved PDF is all you get sent by email or in the list of your materials in their system.
