The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is inviting public comments about a collection of information linked to Form ID, a form used to obtain EDGAR access codes necessary for electronic filings. Proposed amendments to the form would require individuals or organizations that already have a Central Index Key (CIK) but no EDGAR access codes to submit Form ID. This change is expected to increase the annual Form ID filings from 46,842 to 48,493, with the total annual burden rising from 7,026 hours to 7,274 hours. Public comments on these changes can be submitted via the reginfo.gov website or via email within 30 days of the notice's publication.
Simple Explanation
The SEC is asking people what they think about changing a form needed to send things online. They want to make it easier for some people who already have an ID number to also get access codes, which means more people will need to fill out the form each year.
