The overriding priority for NFA examiners at the moment is reducing backlog.
Previously, if there was an error on a form, it would be returned to the dealer. The dealer would make or have the correction made, and the form would be returned to the NFA branch. That's no longer the case.
I've spoken with two examiners on this, and the new approach is not to waste time waiting for corrections. For the time being, any form with any error whatsoever is being declined, and the tax is being refunded. That means going back to square one and resubmitting from scratch.
Review your submissions carefully, or you could end up wasting a great deal of time.
