ATF Provides Permit Processing Time Chart

[allingeneral]

NEWTOWN, Conn --(Ammoland.com)- As NSSF has recently reported, ATF is advising that the volume of NFA forms and import permit applications, combined with staffing shortages, has resulted in increased processing times for ATF NFA forms and import applications. For example, actual processing time for Form 6 Part I (ATF Form 5330.3A) is currently 12 weeks.

ATF advises that requests for expedited processing will not be entertained except for permits associated with federal, state and local government agencies and evidenced by a government contract or purchase order, with an immediate need for imported products. Licensed importers should monitor approved permits for expiration dates and submit new applications well in advance of the 12-week timeframe.

Wow! 9 months is just nuts. What happened to the ever expanding US Government? They can hire more people in a branch that actually helps support our rights?

Our tax dollars at work.

9 months is no good, but the eForms initiative is seeing a turn around time of 3-4 months.

The eForms are working great for us!
