Check cashed - 04/29/2019
Approved - ???

I called ATF for a status today and they said that it's in the system, but the current backlog is about 10 months. So, if the check was cashed at the end of April, I'm looking at the end of February?

I never thought I'd see a government department work more slowly than Customs and Immigration. ATF wins.

Lately I have been consistently seeing about 10 months for individual Form 4's and 12 months for trust Form 4's

Another Form 4 stamp arrived, today - 354 days - trust as owner.

10 months to the day on a trust stamp - received a few weeks ago. Cautiously optimistic that delay time may be coming down

Another Form 4 stamp received for a customer on Saturday - 9 months, 28 days with a trust - times keep coming down a little bit at a time. From my experience, they were averaging 12 months on a trust, 3 months ago.

Another Form 4 stamp for a trust: 9 months, 22 days from mailing of forms to receipt of stamp

That's encouraging. I have one more for a trust in jail with the check having been cashed right at 6 months ago.

Not sure what just happened at ATF, but I just received 2 approved Form 4's with trusts that were mailed on December 3, 2019 - stamps received on March 2, 2020; less than 4 months total elapsed time! I have several older Form 4's that are still in the pipeline, which have not yet been approved, including one for the same customer.

I had a Form 4 Trust approved approved in 3 months at the end of 2018, 9/4/18, 12/06/18. Suppose I used up all of my luck as I am at 324 days waiting on a Form 4 right now.
