In the case of a transferee under 21 years of age, if NICS notifies the licensee within three business days from the date the licensee contacted NICS that cause exists for further investigation, the licensee may not proceed with the transfer until they receive a follow-up “Proceed” response from NICS or until another seven business days have expired, exclusive of the day on which the query is made (up to ten business days in total), whichever occurs first.
