The Primary Agent/Consultant is not responsible for the submission of original main forms,
including PMN, Biotechnology, NOC, or Bona Fide forms. The Primary Agent/Consultant is an
individual who serves as a consultant to a specific company. However, this individual is not
responsible for and does not have the authority to submit data since the agent/consultant does not
technically work for the submitting company.
As a Primary Agent/Consultant, you can create all form types within the Section 5 Notices and
Supports application. You are also responsible for submitting amendments, unlocking
submissions, and deleting forms. A Primary Agent/Consultant can submit a Support or ACM
form, but cannot submit any other form types, and may not assign Support users to a form.
You can save the form at any point during the data entry process. The save functionality will
allow you to return to that same form at any point in the future. You can print the form at any
point; however, the ‘Not For Submission’ watermark will be placed on the form anytime the
form is printed prior to actual submission.
