Got Uzi Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 I’m about to go back to filing everything via the paper Form 4 and the hell with the eForm 4. There’s hardly a difference in the wait times and I’ve been hearing of more and more eForms getting kicked back due to fingerprint issues. I had one come back because they said the fingerprint card wasn’t filled out all the way….bull$hit….it was filled out exactly like it was supposed to have been. I called it when all this started, 60-90 day transfer times were a pipe dream and well….here we are folks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vito / OTB Firearms FL Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Our Eforms are coming back from Mid-May. And to make matters worse, there is NO provision for corrections on this system in case of typos. That person gets the application DENIED and we have to start over. We are close to going back to paper forms since the wait time is the same and we can make corrections in case of issues. Vito 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Hi All, Yes. The BATF video does mention that the forms are either accepted or rejected on the eforms system. There are no corrections per BATF. They insist this was done to give us "a 90 day" processing of the forms. I see they got the no corrections part right anyway.

I love my 38/42, unique gun, left hand eject, two triggers and extremely accurate. Does your example have the fluted barrel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigan Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 In seven days I will have an e-form 4 hit the year mark. Certified March 17, 2022. Just certified another a few weeks ago - here's to hoping I see it before New Year's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Iannamico Posted March 13 Author Report Share Posted March 13 I just got back an eform 4 after 9 months REJECTED because the middle name on the eform 4 was spelled out and on the paper fingerprint card, he put just the initial of his middle name. Rejection said "REFUND in process." No fix start over Doing paper this time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner11 Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 WOW! That really sucks all the way around. I hate that for the guy sitting there waiting for 9 months only to have start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
har1690 Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 Freaken horrable. 9 months wasted. The ATF should be real proud of themselves! I've got a eform 4 for a transferable @ 7 months. Shittin' bricks thinking about the outcome... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got Uzi Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 And everyone was so so happy with the release of the e forms system. Yep going back to 100% paper for Form 4’s. If you do t like it, go somewhere else….I don’t want to store something for nearly 2 years if there was something trivial missed… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Iannamico Posted Friday at 12:32 PM Author Report Share Posted Friday at 12:32 PM I got an email from ATF...in that message, it had average transfer times for Form 4s Eform 4 270 days Paper Form 4 270 days As mentioned here before, if there is a mistake on the eform or fingerprint cards, they refund the tax and you have to start all over again.
