New resident ownership form question

[cold_boot]

I'm going to moving to the Bay Area in the next few weeks and looking over the required registration form. I noticed one field "Date Acquired" and wondering if that is the date I bought the firearm in my home state? Also what if I don't have that date handy . Does the CA DOJ kick the form back if that isn't filled out....?

And hi everyone

Ballpark it.
They have no way of checking... they're just looking for a date that predates any items that would establish you as a California resident (driver's license application, property rental/lease/purchase, accepting employment, etc...)
