Wanna mail my form 4 in tomorrow, but first a question or two/

[OREGON FALER]

So just to review , a certificate of compliance is not needed on a form 4 when using a trust, correct?

also, what parts of a trust should I send in? The whole thing?

Which mail service did you folks use?

I do the certificate of compliance anyway. If they don't want it, they can throw it away. For the trust, send in the main part, whatever the other part is called(I forget now, basically anything with a notary stamp on it), and the sched a/property list whatever it's called. I just send it first class mail.

CoC was still required on the last one I did.

I mailed priority just so I know it get's there safe.

 

[OREGON FALER]

Alright, so tomorrow then. I've got (2) two copies of the form 4 signed and dated by me and the rest filled out by Pat at Oregon research Labs. (1) one certificate of compliance, My entire trust document and a Check drawn on my trust account for $200. All wrapped up nicely in a priority mail envelope.
Am I forgetting anything?

As long as you have it out, you might as well make another dozen photocopies of the trust paperwork for the next forms you send in

Looks like you covered all the bases. I didn't send in the CoC or set up a trust checking account, but I did send in the whole trust.

Have you had any problems being delayed with not having sent the coc?

Yeah, you're right cause I do have a 5.56 phantom between dealers right now too. And I'll need a 9mm, and a second .22lr. My wife says I'm getting expensive.

Enough time hasn't passed to know if it has or not. My check was cashed 2/20/13.

I called after 3 weeks and the lady at the BATFE said that I needed to wait 4-5 weeks after my check was cashed to call and see if my paperwork is in the system... Things are getting longer, which sucks!

It might help to get several notarized copies of pertinent documents at the time.
A copy of a notarized document is not acceptable, in most cases.

Copy of your trust (make sure your schedule A is included), two copies of your form 4 and tax payment. I always send in a COC even though I have a trust (I have done many,many transfers this way). I also always send via priority mail with tracking.

I can't believe they wouldn't take a copy of a notarized document, Whats a guy suppossed to do get 20 notarized copies right in the beginning and then hope that's enough. I don't think you can just go get more notarized copies of the same document because it would show a different date and be a different trust with the same name.

Copies sent to the ATF do not have to be notarized... I just sent in regular copies....

What I sent them were Xerox copies of the entire trust document, That's the Notarized affidavit and the Notarized trust including schedule A. I'm sure it'll be fine, If not then I guess I get to start over again.

Yes that is good.

The only time you'll be starting over is when you buy your next NFA toy. Photo copy of the trust is fine for sending to BAFTA for your stamp.

Check cashed on 4/5. It's been a tough two weeks.

 

[del_and_bones]

I'm right there with ya. Form 1 individual mailed 3/19 and check cashed 4/4.

 

[iamme]

The next couple months will be hell if already getting impatient!

Check cashed on 4/5. It's been a tough two weeks.

Did you send in your schedule A? I got a form 1 kicked back for not including that.
