Do you know what to do before filing your Form N-1A? Here are some tips and best practices to help submit your form smoothly. We recommend testing and reviewing early to ensure no surprises as you get close to finalizing your submission.

Review checklist

☐ Get your CIK Confirmation Code (CCC) and SEC password. Confirm that the SEC password has not expired.

☐ Make sure the Exhibit Index is hyperlinked properly.

☐ Check Document Health for any outstanding warnings.

☐ Check to make sure all documents that should be included in the iXBRL profile are present, listed in your desired order, and the option “Combine Documents” is checked.

☐ Provide a response to all items that were listed in the email from the Professional Services Specialist.

☐ Review all filing health messages that may appear as you go through the Next Gen filing steps.

☐ Verify the DEI information in the filing package for accuracy.

☐ Before Test or Live Filing make sure to check the following:

• The Professional Services Specialist has confirmed with you that the final iXBRL review is complete
• If any changes are made after the final iXBRL review please notify the Professional Services Specialist prior to filing

☐ Review the Test Filing preview results, as this may contain errors or warnings that requires addressing.
