If you are claiming e-subscriptions

you must complete an additional worksheet

The deadline for filing your Statement of Ownership, Management, and Circulation (PS Form 3526) with the United States Postal Service is Oct. 1. The filing and publication of this form is a requirement to maintaining Periodical mailing privileges. Dailies must publish a completed copy of this form in the newspaper by Oct. 10 and non-dailies by Oct. 31.

Download and complete the new PS Form 3526 (dated August 2012). If you are claiming electronic subscribers on line 16, you need to complete a worksheet, PS Form 3526-X. (TPA has created interactive forms to make them more convenient to fill out.) Electronic subscribers are not to be included on line b(4) or any other line on the Statement of Ownership. They are only entered on PS Form 3526-X. If you are claiming electronic subscribers, publish PS Form 3526-X along with PS Form 3526.
