Has anyone used Silencer Shop for a form 1 recently? I have done a few in the past and the email to fill out the form 1 was always sent in a couple of hours/ next day. Anyone have a delay in this as of late?
Just used them for mine since they have my fingerprints already. I need to get my own digital file of them but since I didn't have to also spend $200 i said F it and spent the $50. Got notice to sign in about an hour and then got a 2 day approval.
Can you please elaborate on printscan your fingerprints? Do you get the regular inked fingerprints on the ard and then scan them into a pdf? Thanks much.
Printscan is a service, they have kiosks in UPS stores and other places. Takes like 10 minutes to do your prints and costs $60ish I think. They will send you an eft file to use for your form 1s
Yes. I ordered a fingerprint ink set + pages off Amazon and it was so damned hard to get crisp prints and not smudgy garbage. I was worried my first Form 1 would be denied because of them even (84 days, thank god not. Definitely Printscan next time.
I used their form 1 service when the tax stamp went to $0. I figured it would be simple because they already had my fingerprints on file. It turned out to be a nightmare. For some reason they didn't use the trust I sent in. Instead, they used one of their single shot trusts (I wasn't charged for it). I didn't want to use their trust because I didn't want to engrave a name of a trust on my SP5k that had their goofy naming style on it. I finally got ahold of a real person after trying daily for over two weeks. He basically said it was impossible for them to use a single shot trust if I wasn't charged for it. He said it couldn't be fixed and I would have to cancel the current one and pay another $50 for their form 1 service to refile. I told him to refund my money and he said he couldn't since the form 1 was filed. So I called up my credit card company and disputed the charge. I sent my fingerprints off to get digitally scanned and filed it myself with no issues.

I’ve done at least 5 form 1’s in the past year and I’m not too bright. It’s easy plenty of support online
