Individuals who hold positions as company officers, directors, or beneficial owners of more than 10% of a class of the company's equity securities have specific reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

To file with the SEC, you'll require access codes. This applies even if your stock ownership is through another entity, such as a family trust or a business entity. To acquire these codes, submit a FORM ID accompanied by a notarized signature. The SEC typically processes these within a day.

Upon acquiring a position as an officer, director, or an owner of 10% of the company's equity, your initial ownership report (Form 3) should be filed within 10 days. It's imperative to obtain your access codes promptly to adhere to these reporting timelines. Should the company register new shares you're obtaining, ensure your initial report coincides with the effective date of this registration.
