Abstract: Under Title 28, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Section 25.6(h), the FBI CJIS Division, would require the transmission of electronic determination messages to the NICS Section of the status of a firearm background check in those instances in which a transaction is "open" (transactions unresolved before the end of the operational day on which the transaction was initiated); "denied" transactions; transactions reported to the NICS as open and subsequently changed to proceed; and overturned denials. The Point of Contact (POC) State must communicate this response to the NICS immediately upon communicating their determination to the Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) or in those cases in which a response has not been communicated, no later than the end of the operational day in which the transaction was initiated. A final determination response from Full State POCs, Partial POCs, and Alternate Permit State POC must be communicated to the NICS in order to ensure the NICS correctly purges proceeded transactions before the beginning of the next business day in order to maintain compliance with retention regulations. Additionally, this information will be used for statistical purposes; for FFL record inspections by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF); to assist in the NICS Section's appeal process for research purposes; and to enhance the performance of the NICS by making state final determination information available to the NICS Section.
