    Yeah this whole approval thing on Sunday threw me for a loop as well.
    Efile form 1 SBR sent 2/16 and approved 2/19 at 9:32am. Whatever I'll take it. so 62 days. Now if history repeats itself my form 1 458 socom "can" should be arriving next Tuesday. (fingers crossed)

    When does the wait really begin? Once the check is cashed or when it goes pending? For my form 4 trust, the check was cashed Feb 11 but went pending late March. Would it be around 3 months when check is cashed or when it went pending?

    Definitely not where you are!
    As some would say... a little of column A and a little of column B.

    Approximately 90-120 days from when the check is cashed to stamp in mailbox. My last Form 4 transfer with check cashed late Dec 2014, I had a stamp in hand mid March.

    See post #2891. Check is cashed and you go "pending" shortly thereafter, even though it takes several weeks before the system says you're "pending." My check was cashed in last February. I called all through March and into April, yet it wasn't until mid-April that I was told I went pending...back in February. During all of my March and early April calls to BATFE, they said I was not pending. It appears you go "pending" weeks before the BATFE system says you're pending. Weird. As of now, I am still waiting for my stamp for a form 4 MG trust.
