How To File Your Assessment Forms (SIPC-6/SIPC-7)

Once granted access to the SIPC Portal, Broker-Dealers are required to file their SIPC assessment forms (the SIPC-6 and SIPC-7) electronically through the SIPC Portal. Broker-Dealers are given initial access to the SIPC Portal on a staggered basis, based on their fiscal year end. Once access to the SIPC Portal is granted, no forms will be accepted by mail or e-mail. Questions about filing forms should be directed to the Membership Department at (202) 371-8300 or form@sipc.org. These PDF versions of the assessment forms are provided as fillable Acrobat PDF forms to be used only by Broker-Dealers who do not yet have access to the SIPC Portal. Please go here if you need assistance using Adobe Reader to complete a form. Broker-Dealers with access to the SIPC Portal must file all forms through the SIPC Portal.
