NEW – Now available – Online Annual Request for Information (RFI)
In the past, we have sent our RFI as a physical form which we asked to be filled out and sent back either by mail or by email. We are excited to move to an online environment for returning this information. This method will be quicker, simpler and more user friendly.
By clicking the link below, you will be taken to Zoho Forms, where you can submit your return. We can then review and record the information. No postage, or emails. You can still attach documents if needed.
Submission of information requires an Access Code. Please refer to the mailed letter which will indicate the Access Code and the form that must be selected.
