I won the vehicle 5/29/24 and the euc cleared 8/8/24. I am still just waiting for the sf97. What are the time frames you have seen for sf97 to arrive?

.
GovPlanet starts the request for the SF97 as soon as the vehicle is confirmed picked up. The paperwork needs to be routed from the service branch (USMC in my case) to GovPlanet, then processed and transferred to the buyer (you) on a separate sheet of paper. Mine (and I was a first time buyer, not sure if that makes a difference) took just under 6 weeks to be sent out and I received it two days later in certified mail.

I have read of 4 to 6 months on this site before, but don't recall specifics...

Best of luck, and have fun with the truck.

Bought on Oct. 30, scanned and uploaded all needed document and received my SF97 on Nov 22. It was an Army issue M1097. Thought it was fast due to my resource before buying looked like time frame was two to four months.

First purchase is always longer. I won't give you my horror story but call govplanet frequently and stay on top of them.

They sent my sf97 and approximately 300 other people's to one guys house in Florida. Can't make this sh*t up. Thankfully he was honest and sent them all back to govplanet and kept his own. Govplanet finally got it sorted and sent everyone's out correctly later. All in it was approx 9 months for me to get my first but factor COVID shutdown in there.

Yes - call them. They are helpful and what they tell you isn’t always true, but eventually they get it done. My first one sat because the year model from the auction didn’t match their sf97, and it was sitting on someone’s desk waiting for them to do something about it. Eventually (like 6 months) they sent it to me wrong and I had to figure it out.
