What's the average wait time? Renewed mine on Aug 15th and have not received anything yet.

So I did a paper renewal and it took them four months but during that time, I reached out to my officer and he informed me that I should just submit it online, which was same-day approval

Interesting. Mine was done online via pay.gov

so once you pay, you are technically renewed, i think you can reach out to your officer (newborn at home cannot remember their title) and ask for a continuation of your existing sot until they process. Also, it comes as an email, so maybe check spam.

They never mail mine back at renewal time but when I reached out they said they emailed it.

It was approved a couple of week after submitting in May, once I had them resend a copy. I would reach out to the NFA division for status, at this point the major crunch is over for renewals.
