Can Part 2 of Form ADV be filed electronically through the IARD system?
Yes, Form ADV Part 2 along with Schedule F must be filed through the IARD system. However, unlike Form ADV Part 1, Part 2 must be completed offline and uploaded to the IARD system. The form must be submitted in a text searchable pdf format in order to be accepted by the IARD system. IARD system instructions for filing Part 2 of Form ADV can be found on the IARD web site at http://www.iard.com/part2instructions.asp . An editable PDF version of Form ADV Part 2 with Schedule F can be obtained from the following website: http://www.nasaa.org/Industry_Regulatory_Resources/Uniform_Forms.
