Pursuant to recent SEC amendments, certain Form 144 filings must be made on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (EDGAR) system. By April 13, 2023, affected filers must have transitioned from paper to electronic filing of Form 144. During this transition period, affected filers must ensure that they have an EDGAR account.

The electronic filing requirement applies to all Form 144 filings, except for reports related to securities of issuers that do not file 1934 Act reports with the SEC on EDGAR.

Reporting persons who do not have EDGAR accounts should apply for access to EDGAR as soon as possible, and well before compliance is required on April 13, 2023.

The SEC website provides a “Form 144—Resources for Filing Electronically” webpage to support affected Form 144 filers and filing agents in applying for access to EDGAR and in preparing and submitting the electronic Form 144.

If you have questions regarding applying for access to EDGAR and in preparing and submitting the new electronic Form 144, contact EDGAR Filer Support at (202) 551-8900, option 3.

If you have questions about whether you are required to file a Form 144, contact the Division of Corporation Finance’s Chief Counsel Office at (202) 551-3500.
