[ARCHIVED THREAD] - BATFE Form 1

Posted: 5/1/2009 8:00:07 AM EDT

I sent my Form 1 a month ago and decided to call the BATFE yesterday just to make sure that I was put into their system. They told me not yet. I would have though that I would at least have been put in line by now.

It looks like it's been taking about 2 1/2-3 months for them just to go pending and then another 2-3 weeks after that for approval.

You've been put in a "pile"... a very large pile.

They are running SLOW, again. Got a personal purchase a couple years ago in less than a month, now they are taking longer for SOT to SOT transfers than that!

They told me that that they are very backed up right now.

I've had one I submitted on 2-15, still hasn't come back.

I just got my form 1 in the mail today.

I mailed it on 1/27, check was cashed on 2/6, and it was approved on 3/27.

It was for a SBR under a corp.

Be patient, it will come.

Though I do know mine went pending on April 28, so we are almost there.

I sent in a Form-1 about a year ago. I called a week after they cashed my check. and they said it wasn't in the system yet. I told the lady on the phone that I had hoped it would be in the system by now and gave her the date my check was cashed. She started telling me in what seemed a rehearsed response the it would probably be another month or so before it went pending. I could hear papers shuffling in the background. Two days later I had my approved Form-1 in the mailbox.

Maybe if people stop calling every week checking the status of their forms, they'll be able to work faster and get more forms done.

Just a thought.

It took about 90 days for each of mine to come back, submitted on 05JAN09 and 20JAN09

Mine took two months to go pending and another 2.5 months to get approved.
