However, we encourage issuers to identify duplicate profiles and request their deletion. An unused profile is one for which no fees have been paid to CDS and against which no filings have been made. When a new Other Issuer or Mutual Fund Issuer profile is created, CDS sends a pro-rated invoice for the annual filing service charge for continuous disclosure to the mailing address indicated on the profile within 30 days. A reminder letter is sent after 60 days and if no response is received within 90 days, the profile is considered to be unused and is deleted. Section 6.2 of the Filer Manual explains the service charges.
Unnecessary documents waste storage space.
For example, it is not necessary to file cover letters just to list the documents included with the filing. You should file a cover letter only if it is a required document or is necessary to provide additional information about the filing. This can cause delays because we have to manually match the filing and fee category. We hope that allowing you to make the fee schedule more readable will help you find the correct fee description for your filing.
