    a colleague of mine submitted his license renewal forms in June and his license expires today. He hasn't heard anything yet about his application so technically the firearm is illegal as from tomorrow. What should he do?

    Does he have proof of submission?

    Tell him to check his id number and serial number on the saps website to see if the app was captured. Alternatively download "Where's My App" on play store and check that way. I was able to track a new application for which I never received an sms or reference number.

    If he handed in the application, the license remains legal. Period. That does not change.

    Thanks guys. both the saps website and app didn't have much info. We just got hold of the call centre and they said his application was sent back two days ago to his local dfo as incomplete. Eish. will have to wait a while before he can go and find out why it was incomplete and then resubmit for another 5 month wait maybe. They couldn't tell him why it was incomplete. So it'll be next year before he gets it approved again

    The app draws from the website so they should be the same.

    yip. it would be so much better for everyone if the application was just online. Can get sent to whichever office immediately and actioned straight away. Can then add whatever needs to added if necessary. But welcome to SA
