IT MUST BE EXCACT WHEN THE ACCOUNTS WERE SET UP!!! YMMV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pa123guns Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 (edited) For SOT renewal you can go directly to pay.giv and submit payment. It won’t work for a form 4 though it appears to be an issue with the eform site as I was trying over and over to renew Edited June 26 by pa123guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Greenwade Posted July 8 Report Share Posted July 8 The issue must be "officially" resolved. The Seller was able to get past the pay.gov step early yesterday morning and the Form 4 is in "Submitted" status. ...let the wait begin; I'm curious and beyond excited to see how this one plays out, Skip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
