JDG Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 That is the question. Maybe this is a stupid one to ask, but I cannot remember what I did the first time I sent in a Form 4 for approval, can I fold my application or do I need to keep it flat in a manilla envelope etc... Does it matter? Am I imagining that it cannot be folded? Fold away and forget about it? Am I putting too much thought into this? Crumple it into a ball and toss it into the mail? Thanks for any input! Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill in VA Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Don't sweat it. NFA will fold it anyway. It''l be folded so that your transferor's address will show through the envelope window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amafrank Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Bill is right, they will fold it and generally right through the middle of your picture. Its hard to predict the exact fold so if you send it in a big manilla it may save a second fold line. Not really a big deal either way..... good luck on your transfer time.

Chopper28 Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 My last two transfers have gone through fast. From the time it went pending, 59 days on the first one and 47 on the latest one! Maybe things are improving since the move to WV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z3BigDaddy Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I never ever fold documents that have to be perused by cubicle dwellers for "the absolute correct information" on each and every line, at work, NFA or otherwise. If they fold it after it passes muster so be it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusnut Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 In general, folded ones take a month longer to approve....the unfolding process is laborious, and usually takes at least 2 examiners.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffen Und Bier Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 ....and when they irradiate it to kill the anthrax, it turns the paper a nice shade of yellow (and the photos purple). http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/hail.gif http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/nutkick.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full auto 45 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I don't fold the forms. Send them flat and that way, there is no way, well shouldn't be, they can say,"I can'ts reads this". And less chance your photo will be screwed up. Let them make the necessary folds. And make sure you express mail your forms off. Gets there next day and must be signed for. I sent mine of on 2-16-06. It was signed by H. Musa at 11:08am on 2-17.

EM1/SS Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I just got a M10/9 last week. For the first time the form 4 came back in a large white envelope that was not folded. It also only took about 30 days from when it went pending to get approved. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docmolar Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I sent mine unfolded and received it back folded right through the picture in 53 days. I agree with Mike, send it priority so they have to sign for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
