The September 12, 2025 deadline for EDGAR filers to complete their enrollment in the EDGAR system’s new login, password, and access protocols (these updates being referred to as “EDGAR Next”) is fast approaching. EDGAR filers including SEC reporting companies, Canadian and other non-reporting companies that file Form D’s for their private placements, Canadian and other investors that file SEC beneficial ownership reports on Schedule 13D and 13G, and Canadian and other directors, officers and 10% shareholders that file ownership reports under Section 16, must all enroll in EDGAR Next by this deadline or they will lose the ability to make new filings on or after September 15, 2025.
Filers can continue to enroll between September 15, 2025 and December 19, 2025, but they will not be able to file during that time period until they enroll. After December 19, 2025, filers will be unable to enroll, and filers that have not enrolled will be unable to file on EDGAR or otherwise access their EDGAR accounts until they submit a Form ID application for access that is granted by SEC staff.
