Form ADV-H-C is an application for a continuing hardship exemption filed by investment advisers pursuant to 17 CFR 279.3 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. It permits small business advisers to demonstrate that electronic filing on the IARD system would impose an undue hardship, allowing them to submit Form ADV and related filings on paper instead. The dataset includes all Form ADV-H-C filings submitted to EDGAR from February 2002 to present. For each accession number, a metadata file and all documents in the original EDGAR submission are included except image files. Each filing typically contains the applicant's identifying information, a description of the hardship justifying the exemption, the requested time period for the exemption, and supporting documentation establishing the adviser's eligibility as a small business under SEC rules.
