Eforms?

[brutal]

Folks have also said it only works with IE. I got through just fine with FF 25.0.1, which is surprising in and of itself.

Works fine with Chrome and Safari, as well - now if they'd get around to approving my FFL submission application so I can actually file something.

<-- FFL/SOT w/ eForms.

Yes, the website is quite a cluster. However, they are making quite a huge push as it does seem to be significantly faster, though unreliably so. I think they are still taking it offline mid-day for maintenance every day. But some people are getting forms back extremely fast, and not just from during the early days of the rollout. Some forms appear to be still taking a while, who knows why. ATF just emailed out a 13 page doc tonight on eForms to FFLs to try to help us all figure out how to use the darn thing. Don't get your hopes up (especially as more people start to use it) but it does appear this is the way to go for now if your FFL will support it - might shave a few weeks or a few months off your processing time and get you your can back before the June deadline for ATF 41p.

Sounds like we have several more SOTs on the board than I thought. Look - this is not an attempt to generate sales, as like many guys, I do this for fun part-time, but if you want a can, I would suggest you reach out to one of us and get going fast. June will be here soon, and so will the new regs, whatever they end up being finalized as. I'm a small home-based FFL and I've had more interest in suppressors than ever before for that reason alone.

Was informed today (14:20) the Efile site goes down DAILY for upgrade / retrieving submitted Eforms.
SO ...........Lunch time is down time, which "varies" depending (SURPRISE) on what ever.
Sometimes i feel like i'm talking to our daughter when she was a teenanger.
As mentioned before 3MB MAX per document submitted. I eeked mine out to 2.9mb's.

To me it seems morning or evening has been working best. I'm not sure if the time varies day by day as to when it goes down

Just did my first three eforms filings......thanks to the comments above on attached file sizing, and other gothcha's....... Used google Chrome as the browser since the web site doesnt seem to suppot IE 9, 10, or 11.......

Its not the greatest web site process. but far from the worst.......will post when we go pending and when we get approval. Manual Form 4 came in Jan 11 that was submitted March 9th 2013 ......FWIW

Just filed eform on my Mac. Tried on Safari but got the pinwheel of death whenever I attempted to get to the application page. Ended up using FireFox with no problems.

Your pending date is the day you file them with e-file. Expect approval in about 100 days, it appears that they are slowing down a bit as more and more people efile and more and more are getting forms in before the no cleo signature on trusts may go away.
