Basically I sent in my paperwork to get approved and it was not due to the following.

-   Complete Certification of Compliance with 18 U.S.C (922)(g)(5)(b)

They attached a copy of it to my paperwork but to me it seems to be a pointless piece of paperwork. It asks your name, country of citizenship, and a signature.

BUT more importantly, when I mail this back in do I need to mail in another $200.00 check. Please say no because if I do my unhappiness w/the ATF is going to turn into a deep hate. Also will the turn around be any quicker? This took them 2 1/2 months.

Thanks

Also how did it pass through the Sheriff if I did not have the form then?

The certificate of Compliance -- a.k.a form 5330.20 -- was created shortly after 9/11 and added as a requirement for all sorts of federal firearms paperwork, to track the citizenship of those involved with firearms.

It has nothing to do with the CLEO signoff -- your sheriff prolly doesn't know it exists. But the federal government does, and wants a copy of it.

Everyone who has submitted a Form 1 or Form 4 as an individual in the last seven years has had to include a 5330.20. Sorry you didn't get the word. If you had, instead of getting a rejection, you would have your approved form in your hands today.

Fill it out, sign it, and send it back. No need for another check. They should approve you fairly quickly.

Alright Thanks for the info guys. I appreciate the description of the form. I'll be sending it back next morning! I can't wait for my approval. This will be my first NFA firearm (SBR) and I'm 19 so I'm ahead of the game. Thanks again

It's not a big deal.  They will probably approve you as soon as they get it. Not too long now...
