Well, I might have an answer for you as this just came up in the office. As part of the new "NICS Fix" that was pushed through recently, a lot of OLD denials are being uploaded into NICS that weren't in there before. As in 1970's old. It's possible someone with your name and DOB was denied 40 years ago, and your denial is based on that one. A pilot from another state contacted us because he's denied for a car theft arrest in 1979. It's not him, it's a guy from a different state, but name and DOB match. He's got to contact the FBI with the info and show it's not him. The old files apparently didn't match by height/weight/ssn/eye color/etc. so the fact they have different SSN and eye color is irrelevant as far as the system is concerned.
The UPIN option looks like it will help in the future.
I looked into the UPIN after I got delayed 3 days. I learned that 1. I had to be actually denied to get one and 2. a lot of people with a UPIN were complaining that they still would get delayed and have to fight each time.

I want a loudener.
And 5 day waiting period? That settles it, the Springfield has GOT to be Illinois.
Yeah, so I got a straight up denial. I had them run it again just in case it was someone entering the info wrong. Same result. So something had to have been put under my name by mistake?
I submitted it. It said I’ll receive written response as to why I was denied. Not sure where to go from there. Has anyone else been through this?Did you go through the appeal yet?
