We often receive questions about EDGAR filing deadlines and the cut off to receive same day date stamps on filings. The following is a summary of general EDGAR hours of operation:
The EDGAR system hours of operation for submitting files are 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time, weekdays, excluding Federal Holidays. EDGAR filings must occur by 5:30 p.m. ET (when the SEC officially ends its business day) to receive the same-day filing date. Filings submitted between 5:30 p.m and 10 p.m. will receive the next business day’s date.
Three types of filings are not subject to the 5:30 p.m. cutoff and will receive a filing date identical to the received date up to 10 p.m. These three exceptions are: Section 16 beneficial ownership reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5; and correspondence filings (e.g., comment response letters and requests for acceleration of effectiveness).
It WILL have a date of April 1 now (at best). I have no idea if this will be a problem?
And I guess everyone saying "just relax" is right. When you think about it, everything has gone super smooth and exactly as planned since last summer. Why worry?
