The SEC is considering possible technical changes to how filers access the EDGAR system to submit applications and how filers manage individuals who submit applications on their behalf. SEC has dubbed this EDGAR Next-Improving Filer Access and Account Management.
On Tuesday, October 12, 2021, SEC will open a EDGAR beta environment (EDGAR beta) to allow filers to test and review many of the potential technical changes to EDGAR filer access and account management. Submitters can register for EDGAR Beta beginning October 12, 2021. The EDGAR Business Office will post an announcement shortly before that date with information on how to register for EDGAR Beta.
