Revisiting some projects after like got crazy and F1 are now free
I’ve never done digital prints for F1
I do have digital prints on file with SS from a local kiosk

Is there a way to get those prints into eforms? I’m not paying SS $50 each for their service
I’m looking at maybe 7 new SBRs
Thanks

The UPS store does fingerprint EFT for $50.00. They email the file to you the same day. Save the EFT file to a thumb drive and use it anytime/anyplace.

I used an app called NFA Suite.

Free fingerprint cards from AFT, inkpad from amazon.

If you pay the $50 for the first Form 1, you can log into your eforms account and download the .eft file, then use it on any future form 1's you file in eforms.

Unfortunately your form 4's don't show up in your account, so that trick doesn't work with them.

Hanshon Brothers and Wojtec will convert paper cards to an eft file and there are some software programs you can find that will do it as well.

If you had SS do your digital fingerprints, I believe I read on here that there's a way to download that file.  You log into eforms and find that application, and somehow you can view the files that were sent with it, which should include the fingerprints.  I've never done this, I just remember reading about it on here that people were doing it.

It says In App Purchases, but I can't tell what functions you have to pay for.

I only purchased the app and it worked. I have made no in app purchases.

This is what I did and have used the EFT file at least 25 times, has more than paid the $50 it cost.

I went to a place called PrintScan (I think?) and they sent me an email that had my prints digitally encrypted in the ATF preferred format.

Downloaded it several times.  Now I have copies on my phone and laptop.

Been good to go on quite a few Form 1 applications.

I use a local dealer for my NFA stuff and they downloaded my prints and photo on a flash drive and that's what I used.

I paid the $40 to Silencer Shop to get a copy of my wife’s prints and then used this to digitize them.

They’ve worked for over a dozen forms so far.

I used EFTSuite (on github).  Free.
Printed the "print" card.  Scanned, then used EFTSuite.

I only purchased the ink.

Just checked, and the files are still in github.

My local SOT does EFT free with any NFA purchase.  I paid for a cheap can, went home filed 2 eF1 on Monday, got approved this morning.

I used a website called Slap and Roll (here).

Used fingerprint cards, scanned them at 600 dpi, loaded them up.
