I’d say that any more than 6 times a day is starting to get excessive...
Huh, anytime I've called, they've been friendly enough. I'm also not a douche when I call so maybe there's something to that.
There is nothing to it. It’s all a matter of what side of the bed they woke up on.
Finally I get something to add to this thread,
Batch approved three Silencershop single shot trusts
Qty(2) Nomad-L and a Nomad 30
Check cashed 5/7/20
Stamp approved 10/8/20
Stamps at lgs 10/20/20
A day over 5 months for approval and day shy of 24 weeks for the total wait, way better than the 8 months I waited for the last ones back in 16’ since I actually got these before hunting season.

I did six all the same week and only one was approved so far. It took 2 months to get to the SOT
It took exactly 6 months from the date chashed to the date approved for me

Now 2 months, and my check hasn’t cashed. My dealer sent my Form 4 individual out around August 7th and apparently the BATFE office changed locations from West Virginia to Oregon sometime near this timeframe..Anyone else experiencing a delay with their initial processing? I don’t care how long it takes to be approved, I just want to know it was received in a timely manner.
ETA: Checked with my dealer and they do not request tracking or delivery confirmation, lol!

That is a drag! I will say I am surprised your dealer wasn't aware of the change, it actually happened closer to the beginning of the year from what I understand, and that all initial documents go to Oregon first. Their address has been updated since April anyway, that is when I started paperwork for my form 4s. I will say that reading through this thread and from what I have heard elsewhere, the checks are getting cashed 2-8 weeks after form 4s are sent in. 2-3 weeks was average 6 months ago. On the backend, seems like cans are coming within 5-8 months. Makes you wonder what changes they are making.... Flip a coin
Ok I just called and spoke to them. I was told it just went to the examiner and should call back in a few weeks.?? it went pending 31 march where in the hell has it been if no one was looking into it WTF
Just got the call today that my TBAC TD22 is ready to be picked up. Check cashed 6/19/2020 and will need to see when it was approved, but that was only 131 days from check cashed to getting the call. I'll take that.
Edit: Picked it up today and the approval was 10/16/2020 for 120 days from check cashed to approval.

My TBAC Ultra 7 that I also got this year in Jan was 6 months from check cashed to approval. So the wait has been coming down, at least for more recent purchases.
My latest:
Check cashed 4/2/20
as of 10/27/20 - Pending
I was told the current running average is 7 months by the gal that answered the phone.

Forms submitted about 3 weeks ago, was just notified the tax stamp was cashed. Individual, through Silencer Shop. They sent me a cool little link to see the latest wait times. Looks like the wait times are coming down quite a lot.

See how long it takes. My first two cans were 9 months if I remember right. I'm guessing I'll see it in March. Which is fine, as I'm not shooting anyways as it's snow and cold.

Testing indicates the Ultra9 did not change zero the slightest on my rifle. 
I did notice that the cover I got reflects a tan color into my scope when the sun is on it. Going to have to get a different color & make it more matt.

Decided to call the ATF yesterday to get an updated on my SiCo sparrow: It was approved by the ATF on 10/28/2020.
Now we will see how long it takes for the stamp to make it to my LGS.
Meant to post mine but have kept forgetting.

Under 5 months, not disappointed in the least
My (first time)wait officially starts today, 11/12/20. Silencer was in-stock and I used silencer shop's system so I have high hopes.
