Can I send a test filing over the Internet, just to see if FTP works?
Yes, you may send a test filing via Internet FTP. Until the Filing clerk runs Interchange Check-in and enters the tracking code, the files you sent will reside in a holding area. Unless processed by the Filing Clerk using Interchange Check-in, the files will not be moved from the holding area. Files which are sent over the Internet, but for which no paper copy is submitted, are considered “orphaned” files and will be periodically purged from the holding area.
