Is BATFE/NFA as backed up as folks are saying?

Not too bad but it was better before the election. On a side note I did talk to the examiner Ted Clutter who did my lastest Form 1. He said volume of forms went up almost 200% and the years not even over. I do have to say I would not want their job right now and I praise them for still keeping it as close to pre-election as possible.

Went pending: 04/21/09
Approved: 05/18/09

My form 1 timeline

Item: SBR

Went pending: 11/24/08
Approved: 12/15/08
Received form 1: 12/22/08
Total day from mailed out to receiving form = 75 days

Comparing between my two timelines, it looks like the wait time went up by a couple of weeks.

112 days and counting on 3 form4's. They have been pending for 60 days.

This thread made me call and check the status and I was told 2 of the form 4's were approved 6/8. 3rd one pending same day still pending as of 6/10. 2 out of 3 is not that bad.

Form 4 Individual

Mailed out: 3/6
Cashed: 3/12
Pending: Early May (I don't remember the exact date)
Approved: ????
Received: ????


I did one last year about this same time and got it back way before now.

I don't expect to have this current one back until mid July based off of my interpolation of people ahead of me that sent their forms in January.
