FFL03 approval time frame?

[dummykid]

I have just received the email from CADOJ saying my COE has been approved, and I have only waited 10 days including weekend. However, I haven't heard anything back from my FFL03 application, so I am wondering what the general time to get approved? ( they have charged my credit card).

Submitting all my paperwork this week for CoE & 03FFL. Now I just hope it doesn't take out of state ammo retailers too long to accept the exemption.

Not really. Mine took a little longer early this year.

With everyone applying for FFL3's lately the wait may take even longer than in the past....

Mine took about two months plus, but it was because I goofed on the forms and had to correct the mistake. It was a renewal and I received it yesterday.

I just called the ATF this morning, and they told me it's currently about a 60 day wait for a new FFL03, which confirms what most on here are saying.
Mine should be ready early January
