    Did you create your own Model or use one from the drop down menu? If you created your own then it'll take 1-3 weeks usually for an approval of your submission and then your cover letter will be emailed to you and the form will go into the submission process.

    created my own. not to worry though. i got my cover letter today. 3 weeks from submission.

    now if only they would be this efficient with form 4s...

    of course i just found out that the shop i ordered my solvent trap from is now closed due to a possible covid exposure so god only knows when i'll actually get the solvent trap

    Time to revive this thread-- A little confused

    Submitted my Form 1 on 16 May. Got an e-mail this afternoon that said the status changed. But the status notification said submitted/In process. Which is exactly what the last e-mail status on 16 May said. Logged in to the site and the status for the form said "Submitted" 16 May 2021 and "Finalized" 20 Jun 2021. But no uploaded copy of a Form 1 showing approval or disapproval-- just the same one I had before that a had a big watermark "submitted" across each page. Little confused

    Might want to use the Ask the Experts tab when you log in to the eForms website and explain the situation.

    Assuming you did everything right on your part, I've seen this happen before. It's usually a clerical error.

    Yep-- I can (and will) certainly do that. Just wondering if this was sort of the norm, out of the norm etc. The MDSP e-mails for W&C are sort of the same--"we changed your investigating officer...again... " So I was wondering if this was kind of in the same vain--but the "finalized' remark on the status bar and the timeline for previous approvals on this thread left me puzzling. But the remarks on the thread are old and was hoping to see how some more recent timelines are running. Thanks!

    UPDATE:

    So I called the ATF Number for NFA items and spoke w/"Jennifer". She informed me that the Form 1 was approved yesterday (6/20/2021) and they should have loaded the Tax Stamp on the E-Form site but alas...as you suspected...a clerical error. So-- sent a message to "Ask the Experts" to request they load the stamp for my retrival. We'll see how long this takes.

    So...theoretically... E-Form 1
    Submitted on 5/16/2021
    Approved on 6/20/2021
    Tax Stamp Provided: TBD

    I keep running up to the edge of doing one of these for an AR

    So you do this whole E-form then mail in fingerprints the old fashioned way? That surprised me. You'd think they would take them electronically like MSP does.

    Agreed--- that was surprising.
