Form 4's are finally coming down. Some laggards but Trusts are into October, down from ~290 days for my March approvals. Individual filers are into November and December already.

I just did efile (gun shop took care of filing) Form 4 for suppressor...in April, it currently shows draft status.. what does that mean?

Its my first time doing it

When you say "it currently shows draft status", where are you seeing that? You won't see any indicator of progress on a Form 4 as they are submitted by an FFL and remain in the FFL's eforms account.

When the Form 4 application was submitted, you should have received an email from eforms.notifications@atf.gov with a subject of: eForms Application Submission Notification for Permit/Control No: 2023123456

The first line of that email should tell you the status. "This is to advise you that the status of your eForms submission with the subject Permit/Control number has changed to SUBMITTED/IN PROCESS"

If you didn't get an email, I would call the FFL and ask for the Control Number. With the Control Number, you can call the ATF ((304) 616-4500.) and provide them your name and the control number. They won't give you any helpful information but it may reassure you.

Unrelated, another stamp approved from my SilencerCo BOGO filed early December of 2021 has finally been approved.
