Accidentally punched in some characters, when I laid down the phone.
ATF sure taking their good sweet time!

My last one which I got about 60 days ago took 13 months. The new system is supposed to take 90 days.

Mine was 14 months. April 2021 and got it June 2022.
I purchased a suppressor in March 2021 (using a trust) and just received it in May 2022. 14 months! You are getting close 
I purchased another one in May 2022 and filed eForm so I'm curious to see if it does take less than the 90 days they are saying.

I sent in application by E file in Feb 2022. I'm hearing I should be getting it soon but no word yet
For what it's worth I'm 104 days into my 90 day Efile time frame.I purchased a suppressor in March 2021 (using a trust) and just received it in May 2022. 14 months! You are getting close

Yeah my question is the new efile system a true 3 months. I'm guessing more like 4-6 months but maybe I'm wrong.
Got mine about three weeks ago, took 15 months and 2 weeks. I'm told the hold up is the FBI fingerprint group. Their the bottle neck. Plus they lost my passport photos and I had to send in more.

Do they send stamp to dealer, local ffl or to me personally? Only been in jail for 2 months so far with an efile.

I did a trust with the Silencer Shop December 2020 for 2 cans. ATF site at that time said 190 days. It was going on 11 months when I wrote my local representative (Jackie Walorski), who said she'd look into it. Funny, how not 2 weeks later both of the tax stamps showed up. One tax stamp check was cashed in December, one was cashed in January. The one that had the check cashed in January showed up 2 days prior to the one that had the check cashed in December. It was like both were sitting somewhere when she inquired they shoved both through the system.
If you have a pro gun representative, I'd have them inquire into what is taking so long. The ATF has no requirement to tell you how long it will be, all they will tell you is that "Yes, it's in the system and being processed."
They send the tax stamp to the local dealer who has the can.

My last one was for a .22 suppressor and it took 13 months from submittal. Stamp showed up at my LGS in WA one business day after I moved to MT. (It remains in WA still.) Calling and checking with the ATF did zero good as I did that right before moving and they told me the form 4 was still under review when it was obviously already in the mail.
