Note: The pin Annual Fees Paid Upfront will only apply to Companies that paid the 10 Year Annual Statement fees before the most current Annual Statement invoice was issued, the pin will automatically be applied to the company in Corporate Messenger if the total amount owing in the Annual Statement is less than or equal to 0. If the 10 Year Annual Statement fees are paid after the most recent invoice has been generated then the pin will not be applied to the company until the following year's Annual Statement is issued with the total amount owning as 0.
