ATF eForm Form 1's are back

[sycotik]

Nothing on Form 4 yet, but the website say they are working on it.

ATF is pleased to announce the return of ATF eForm 1, Application to Make and Register a Firearm, to the eForms system. This version allows filing by individual applicants, trusts and other legal entities (LLCs, corporations, etc.), and government agencies.

Effective July 2016, the definition of Responsible Person (RP) in relation to trusts or other legal entities and a background check requirement on each RP was added to Title 27 CFR Part 479. As a result, each RP must complete and submit ATF Form 5320.23 (NFA RP Questionnaire) along with photos and fingerprints. The signed, completed NFARPQ form is to be scanned and attached to the application as is each RP's photograph. (Note: the Form 5320.23 is not currently an eForm. It must be completed in hard copy or printed from a fillable version found in the ATF website (https://www.atf.gov) and then scanned and submitted as an electronic attachment.)

The eForms system cannot yet accept fingerprint cards, so if the application requires fingerprint cards, the fingerprint cards will be submitted in hard copy. The eForms system will generate an email notification to the submitter providing a cover letter which is to be returned with the fingerprints so they can be matched to the application.

That's outstanding. I am planning to Form 1 an HK USC soon.

Hmm, my last two Form 1 were suppressors. I wouldn't mind building another. I just can't decide what caliber.

I was delighted to ready this. If they get the online Form 4's running, I will be delirious.

Aside from postage/transit time and the time it takes to get check cashed, is the e-forms process noticeably quicker than submitting paper?

If it works like the last one did, I'll still spend the $30 to do it through Silencershop.

No one has any idea, they literally were online last Wednesday night...

I’m asking in regards to when they were up/first came out. How were those compared to paper in that timeframe? Now with the fingerprint/photo it seems it is not as convenient.
