Form 4 status

[asystole]

Does anyone know what is the phone number to check the status of a tax stamp? I tried to locate it on the BATF website but was unsuccessful.

Wonder if it'll go faster if I nag them.

No. Give 'em 60 days from the time your check is cashed, then politely call to inquire.

 

[asystole]

it will be 70 days today since my check was cashed. thank you for the information.

 

[asystole]

probably a dumb question but do you mean 60 business days?

I expect the paperwork to arrive at the same time as my Sure Sights.

Just 60 days. You can call when ever you like. There are no real rules, just what has worked for folks in the past. I usually don't call unless it's over 90. As fast as things have moved since they moved, a call after 70 days would be in line.

Yes I've become very patient. After the first 3-4 transfers, you get that way. My fastest transfer was 39 days and I was stunned. There have been 3 week transfers.

If I let them know I own INGO and offer a comp Ste Supporter membership do you think it might speed things up for me?

Oh yea. You'd be lookin' at a 2 week transfer... tops.

Don't worry. The ATF already knows ALL about you.

My AAC Pilot went through mailbox to mailbox in 18 days.

 

[asystole]

wow. hey thank you all for the information. this is my first stamp

My AAC Pilot went through mailbox to mailbox in 18 days.

Nice! How long ago was that?

To bad it was an AAC can. I have a Pilot too so I can't dog it too much. It's just AAC has given me problems in the past. But THAT is another story for another thread at another time.

Congratulations asystole on your first transfer. Have fun stamp collecting.

Submitted forms in early Feb. went Pending 4/7. Still pending. I call once a week and give them the S/N and they just tell me 4/7 it went pending. I asked if there was a problem and they told me I'd get an "exception letter" in the mail if there was a problem, which I haven't yet.
