Hello,

My AAC can paperwork was sent in on a trust and delivered on 3-26-12. To date they have not cashed the check. Anyone else seeing longer than normal delay in check cashing?

Usually they are super fast in cashing the check?

Thanks,

They don't cash your physical check anymore, instead they do an ACH withdrawal. It will appear on your bank statement as "ATF NFA PAYMENT (some number)". The best thing to do is to just give them a call (304) 616-4500 to be absolutely sure.

Three checks mailed on 3-13, Three checks cashed on 3-20. When it comes to taking your money, the gov doesnt mess around.

Called the BATF today and they don't show the paperwork in the system. The person I talked to said that sometimes the payment processing doesn't get to your bank account for 4 to 6 weeks.

Don't know but she said to give it another week.

That doesn't really sound right to me. Did you get a tracking number when you sent in your documents?

I got an email from the dealer saying the tracking showed it as delivered. Think i'm going to make a call on Thursday.

you have a long wait, as does everyone else, best to just forget about it -

I am aware of the wait and will be letting it slip my mind. But, I wanted to make sure the check was cashed so that I know it's there. Once that is done I know the slow-motion clock starts to tick.

They cashed my check within three days of the form arrival. Contact them at (304) 616-4500 and have your dealer's name and serial number of the item. They will be able to tell you the status.

I'm all for "send it and forget it." However, I will make sure the check clears and that it makes it into "Pending Status." I had one envelope that didn't make it to the ATF. If I didn't check the status of that application, I would never have known it got lost in the mail.

Once it goes Pending, then forget it.

Not sure how this happened but the BATF confirmed mine as pending on April 17th. The check is still not showing as cashed.

I talked to my bank and they said that the money doesn't leave until they either get the paper check back or the electric copy. Must be sitting in a big pile somewhere.

The good news is that I can now relax knowing it's there. Time to forget about it and hope I have it for the holiday.

How long does this whole process usually take from mailing out to suppressor in hand? 6 months or longer?

Mine took about 6.5 months from dropping it in the mail to getting the call my stamp was in and I could pick my suppressor up. Most seem to be in that ballpark.
