    I swear my late June check cash will never arrive!!!

    My June 1 cashed check can I am assuming at this point will be spring time before I get it if I am lucky. I am still worried eForm 4s are going to delay all of the inflight paper form 4s as some of the resources being used on the current paper forms would have to be redirected to the electronic ones. Even if processing them all electronically makes the process vastly more efficient and faster.

    I am just hoping it is something mild like a 8-9 months processing time for paper goes to 9-10 months till the paper is mostly done with and it’s almost all electronic in the future. But I am also worried electronic processing is going to cause a ton more people buy NFA items. Both initially and in general. Further slowing things down for the paper guys badly.

    PS at this point, I’ll be happy enough if my form 4 gets approved before it turns 1 year old. Before 3/1 would be fantastic.

    You're within the window on the Reddit mega thread.

    Thanks. I’ve been checking the Reddit thread and NFA tracker the past couple weeks and saw some early March cans getting approved.

    Just curious if anyone local has had theirs approved (don’t know if it matters if people local to me have gotten approved or not).

    Nothing yet. I have three cans in jail. First one was put in early March and still nothing.

    I'm currently 8 months exactly as of today for another FNC. ATF are too damn slow. Hopefully my registered HK trigger pack is a tad faster when the E-Form 4's go live. I guess time will tell

    NFA Branch is saying 10 months on form 4's. They also said that eform 4's are being put at the back of the pile to clear the paper backlog.

    That’s something for sure. I was worried they’d be at the front of the stack and massively slow the existing paper. I guess that means the electronic form 4s aren’t going to see any real speed improvements for probably 6-12 months as NFA branch finish up the paper backlog.

    Also disheartening to see the guys from early March still not getting their stuff. I am waiting on a 6/1 can.

    Oh well, sounds like maybe I can get it in time to start having fun in warm weather.

    You're waiting on a June can? I'm waiting on cans from April and I'm still pending. I'm figuring I have a month or 2 before mine are paroled. You have a long way to go.
