11/4/2008 - Received by ATF
1/5/2009 - Pending Date
1/23/2009 - Approved
2/2/2009 - Received Approved Form 1
90 days.
I guess that’s not too bad considering it was my first Form 1 application and the review process spanned two holidays and one presidential inauguration.
Can anyone enlighten me what, if any, significance surrounds the “pending date?” Secondly, what process does the “approved ATF Official” do in order to determine to either approve or deny an application? Thanks.
