UGH Form 1 Efile Dissaproved

[ndmiller]

55 Day and disapproved as I keyed the wrong serial number, flip-flopped an 8 for a 0. I must have checked everything a dozen times over 2-3 days before finally submitting. I think manufactures should no longer use one of either 8’s or 0’s in serial numbers, mine essentially looked like this 808008880880880088088808808080800880.

Of course new iPhone IOS 16 can grab the correct number from the picture, but it’s too late. I need to file again and send fingerprints again according the the disapproving examiner and I start at the end of the line. Wa-waaaah.

More of an instructional tale for other self submitting NFA enthusiast, do better than I did or risk the longest feeling do over in history.

How long was the wait for the disapproval?

I hear you, I just submitted one last week and realize right after submission, I didn’t put what will be engraved on the lower in box 4h. I know it will get kicked back for that. I have read that people get approved a lot quicker after a resubmission. Fingers crossed.

I just realized I did the same thing on the form 1 I submitted last week… Crap

You never know what will get kicked back or pass. I sent one in where I did not check a single box and got the stamp, stone never knows.

Second submission just came back denied as well. They couldn’t open part 2 of my trust???

Opens fine for me and I sent a note through the ATF experts with no reply.

This is just stupid.

It’s purposefully not user friendly, so don’t feel bad. They do it to discourage people from pursuing NFA items in the first place. Which makes little sense, because honestly, I’d give them tens of thousands of dollars in stamp money if there was an NFA permit one could obtain to bypass this absurdity.

Yea, I gave them a boat load of money but if I could bypass this shit show my account would be on auto deposit with a proper authority.

Yessir indeed it would be. Something that would allow you to buy suppressors / SBRs / SBS on site like a regular firearm or at most an expedited Form 4 that’s cash and carry.

Just submitted my first eForm 1 on the AFT’s website. Under section 4, the manufacturer details, it auto populates depending on the questions asked on their website. I selected Mega Arms as the manufacturer from their drop down list, selected the Model name from the nest drop down list, and entered the serial number. That was all they asked. And my box 4h is also empty, so…

I’m guessing it’s not a problem. I also entered the same info on the 5320.23.

Mine was just approved earlier this week, so apparently it’s not a big deal…

[ndmiller]

Ok after my first two dis-approvals the third one came back approved after 14 days, so just out $30 for two wasted sets of fingerprints.

Congrats, man. Glad to hear you finally got it settled, $30 notwithstanding, at least you finally get to start enjoying the SBR. Sounds like you got Carol Ripley as an examiner.

Thank you, and yes it was Carol with the approval, how did you know?

The other examiner couldn’t open a PDF file…My kids learned that in 2nd grade.
