General to establish a national instant
criminal background check system that
any FFL may contact, by telephone or
by other electronic means, for
information to be supplied immediately,

prospective purchaser would violate
state or federal law. Information

the NICS E-Check, to ensure appropriate
resources are available to support the
NICS, and also to ensure the privacy
and security of NICS information.

(4) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond:
It is estimated that 250 FFLs enroll
with the NICS per month for a total of
3,000 enrollments per year. The average
response time for reading the directions
for the National Instant Criminal
Background Check System (NICS)
Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL)
Enrollment/NICS E-Check Enrollment
Form is estimated to be two minutes;
time to complete the form is estimated
to be three minutes; and the time it
takes to assemble, mail, or fax the form
to the FBI is estimated to be three
minutes, for a total of eight minutes.
The average hour burden for this
specific form is 3,000 × 8 minutes/60 =

National Instant Criminal Background

takes an additional two minutes to read
which would be 3,000 × 2 minutes/60
= 100 hours.
The entire process of reading the
letter and completing both forms would
take 15 minutes per respondent. The
average hour burden for completing
both forms and reading the
accompanying letter would be 3,000 ×
15/60 = 750 hours.
(5) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection:
The entire process of reading the
letter and completing both forms would
take 15 minutes per respondent. The
