Changes in the review of locking-in addenda

The Registered Plans Directorate currently reviews, approves, and assigns the appropriate designation to locking-in addenda that are submitted by issuers and carriers.

Effective immediately, the Directorate will no longer be reviewing, approving, or assigning a designation to locking-in addenda. Issuers and carriers will still be required to submit the addenda to the Directorate, but they will no longer be reviewed or acknowledged.

If you have any questions about this change, please contact the Registered Plans Directorate at 1-800-267-3100.
