Per the statute GOAL noted in the OP, they are required to give you a receipt immediately if you submit your application in person, or within seven days if you mail it in. If they're refusing to do that, they are in violation of the law. I know, in this state good luck getting them to be held accountable for breaking the law.
The receipt that counts is the one that is printed out my MIRCS after the PD enters the data, though another form might (emphasis might) provide a defense against a license expired more than 90 days civil charge. Unlike the official receipt, no other form will indicate your transactions will go through with MIRCS and no dealer will accept them for non-MIRCS but LTC requires sales (ie, ammo).Not in my town.
They refuse to provide a receipt when handing them an application (I asked for one). You get a receipt after a scheduled interview/prints have been completed.
Tall and skinny you were.renewal ?
HUH?

A few years ago what I said was that FRB would accept a renewal application 6 months before expiration. No idea wrt CV-19 but my guess is that they probably would accept any 2020 expiration at this point.At one point @Len-2A Training said that a renewal can only happen x months before expiration. I can't remember how many months that is. Under this nation of emergency, such a restriction should be disregarded since there are some departments that can take over 12 months to get an appointment in even the best of conditions.
I applied early April, no confirmation email this year but my money order was deposited about two weeks after applying.FWIW: Current Turn Around Time for MA Non-Res LTC
I applied for my non-interview MA Non-Res LTC renewal on 2/05/20.
(I always send it with USPS tracking).
I received an Email confirmation, from the FRB, of the renewal info. receipt on 3/10/20.
I received the new LTC on 5/2/20.
So approximately 3 months turn-around (that is actually the same turn-around time as last year). So it did not take any longer than normal.
