Can I electronically sign ASIC Form 362 when lodging through NowInfinity?

Question 

Can ASIC Form 362 be electronically signed?

Answer 

✅ Yes. ASIC Form 362 can now be electronically signed when lodging with the ASIC.

Thanks to updates under the Electronic Lodgement Protocol (ELP),on April 1, electronic signatures are now acceptable. This means ASIC Registered Agents can now collect and store the form 362 electronically, instead of obtaining the physically signed form. The option to physically sign a paper version of the document remains available.  ASIC Electronic Lodgement Protocol
