I am applying for registration only in jurisdictions that do not have fingerprint card filing requirements, or I am applying for registration in jurisdictions that have fingerprint card filing requirements and I am submitting the appropriate fingerprint card directly to the jurisdictions for processing. 3. REGISTRATION WITH UNAFFILIATED FIRMS Some jurisdictions prohibit “dual registration,” which occurs when an individual chooses to maintain a concurrent registration as a representative/agent with two or more firms (either BD or IA firms) that are not affiliated. Jurisdictions that prohibit dual registration would not, for example, permit a broker-dealer agent working with brokerage firm A to maintain a registration with brokerage firm B if firms A and B are not owned or controlled by a common parent. Before seeking a dual registration status, you should consult the applicable rules or statutes of the jurisdictions with which you seek registration for prohibitions on dual registrations or any liability provisions. Please indicate whether the individual will maintain a “dual registration” status by answering the questions in this section. (Note: An individual should answer ‘yes’ only if the individual is currently registered and is seeking registration with a firm (either BD or IA) that is not affiliated with the individual’s current employing firm. If this is an initial application, an individual must answer ‘no’ to these questions; a “dual registration” may be initiated only after an initial registration has been established). Answer "yes" or "no" to the following questions: A. Will applicant maintain registration with a broker-dealer that is not affiliated with the filing firm? If you answer "yes," list the firm(s) in Section 12 (Employment History). Yes No B. Will applicant maintain registration with an investment adviser that is not affiliated with the filing firm? If you answer "yes," list the firm(s) in Section 12 (Employment History). Yes No American LegalNet, Inc. www.USCourtForms.com Rev.
