    I had the local sheriff sign a form 1 probably 7 months ago and I've not sent it in.

    (Ive been debating for the entire time about getting a trust setup. Im still not sure).

    Anyway, I've still got it, but is there a limit on how long ago it was signed and dated??

    From the Form 1 instructions:


    d. Photographs and Fingerprints. An individual maker (including any
    Federally licensed collector but not any other type of Federal firearms
    licensee) must (1) attach to each copy in item 12 of the ATF Form 1, a 2
    inch x 2 inch photograph of his/her frontal view taken 479.63 says one year
    prior to the date of the application
    and (2) submit two properly completed
    FBI Forms FD-258 (Fingerprint Card with blue lines) with the
    application. The fingerprints must be clear for accurate classification and
    taken by someone properly equippedto take them.


    f. Law Enforcement Certification. The chief law enforcement officer is
    considered to be the Chief of Police for the maker’s city or town of residence,
    the Sheriff for the maker’s county of residence; the Head of the State Police for
    the maker’s State of residence; a State or local district attorney or prosecutor
    having jurisdiction in the maker’s area of residence; or another person whose
    certifcation is acceptable to the Director, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
    Firearms and Explosives. If someone has specific delegated authority to sign
    on behalf of the Chief of Police, Sheriff, etc., this fact must be noted by
    printing the Chief’s, Sheriff’s, or other authorized official’s name and title,
    followed by the word “by” and the full signature and title of the delegated
    person. Item 13 must be completed for an individual maker. The certification
    must be dated no more than one year prior to the date of receipt of the
    application



    Pretty much everything needs to be less than a year old. Prints, signatures, photos.
