Late Filer Procedures

Late Filer Procedures

After any filing deadline has passed (annual, assuming, leaving office), you must follow up with nonfilers. This is not a discretionary duty.

  • Notify late filers within 15 days after a deadline.

  • Send a second late notice, if applicable, within 30 days of the initial late notice.

For your convenience, late notice templates are available online; however, you may use your preferred language. We advise adding a note to late filers’ accounts to document the date late notice(s) were sent for your audit trail.

Alternatively, you can attach a copy of late notice(s) in the “Contact Log” on the filer’s dashboard. (Note: Filers cannot see your notes or contact log entries).
