Hi Jeremy,

Modified (primarily the numbering) what you had using the updated EV Guidelines Version 1.5.2 -

These are the changes - (attached are the guidelines)

1)      Add New Definition: Verified Professional Letter: A Verified Accountant Letter or Verified Legal Opinion as specified in Section 11.11.1 & 11.11.2 of these Guidelines.

2)      Remove Definitions:

a.      Verified Accountant Letter: A document meeting the requirements specified in Section 11.11.2 of these Guidelines.

b.      Verified Legal Opinion: A document meeting the requirements specified in Section 11.11.1 of these Guidelines.



3)      11.2.2 Acceptable Method of Verification:

a.       (2) Government Entity Subjects: Remove part "(iv) an attorney representing the Government Entity"


4)      11.2.2 Acceptable Method of Verification:

a.       Add New Section 6: "(6) The CA may rely on a Verified Professional Letter to establish the Applicant's information listed in (1)-(5) above if (i) the Verified Professional Letter includes a copy of supporting documentation used to establish the Applicant's legal existence, such as a certificate of registration, articles of incorporation, operating agreement, statute, or regulatory act, and (ii) the CA confirms the Applicant's organization name specified in the Verified Professional Letter with a QIIS or QGIS."



5)       Change Formatting of Section 11.4.1 (2)A

a.        Numbered points are incorrect:

                                                       i.      Remove (i)

                                                      ii.      Points 2, 3, & 4 should be 3, 4, & 5



6)       Change All References from Verified Legal Opinion & Verified Accountant Letter to "Verified Professional Letter"

a.        11.3.2 (3)

b.       11.4.1 (2) A i 2. ( which should really be 11.4.1 (2) A I 3 )

c.        11.4.1 (2) B

d.       11.5.2 (A)

e.       11.6.2 (4)

f.         11.8.2 (2) B

g.        11.12.3 (4)


7)      Change Title of Section 11.11.1

a.       From: Verified Legal Opinion

b.      To: Verified Professional Letter from Legal Practitioner



8)      Change Title of Section 11.11.2

a.       From: Verified Accountant Letter

b.      To: Verified Professional Letter from Accounting Practitioner


9)      11.12.3. Parent/Subsidiary/Affiliate Relationship

a.       Remove Part 5: "Accountant Letter: A CA MAY verify the relationship between an Applicant and a Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate by relying on a Verified Accountant Letter (as described in Section 11.11.2); or"

b.      Part 4: Add reference 11.11.2 to "as described in Section 11.11.1" so that it contains both 11.11.1 & 11.11.2.

Regards,
Cecilia
