How do you pay for your Tax Stamp

[-XL-]

Is it better to pay with a personal check, money order, certified check? Does one way or the other make it go any quicker?

Personal check, so you can track when they cash it..

I usually pay with a personal check, that way I can keep track of the timeline of that particular NFA purchase.

In reality, any of the forms of payment you mentioned are OK, but none will speed the process up any.

I send money orders. The thought of potentially accidently bouncing a check to the feds keeps me up at night.

I send a Postal Money order. That way you know it's good. Work for me

 

[revsaxon]

Bank money orders for me.

Paid for my first NFA item with a personal check. It was cashed on Sep 24th and I'm a patient person

 

[Fireaxes]

I sent a personal check both times so far.

Personal check that way I know when its been cashed.

Can't believe nobody else has the same reason as me.... I paid with a Money Order so my wife wouldn't see a $200 check to the BATF. I can come up with $200 to buy a MO, but wouldn't have as much luck writing a check. She doesn't mind the collection, but I didn't necessarily get a "PO" for this one.

You know that most banks offer a free basic checking account, right?

Just sayin'.

I deal with several, but Chase seems to have some decent free checking options. And, the good news is that they are everywhere, so getting access to your cash quickly is easy (if necessary of course).
