Processing QAs

My background check is pending with FBI-NICS, is there anything I can do to speed up the review process?

If I have more than one application pending, will NFA Division process the applications at the same time?

Is bundling available for trusts?

Why do trust applications take longer to process than individual applications?

What is the 24-month exemption to providing the trust document?

I use a simple trust template with only a single responsible person, will my application be processed as quickly as an individual?

Are there other factors other than the review process that result in longer processing times for trusts?
