Note

Even for text files, if your files are not formatted according to the Text File Specifications (Option A files comply with the specifications) we might not be able to process them. Report submissions containing files that do not meet our file specifications are classified as “e-converts” and require special handling that will delay processing; depending on the file type and format, those submissions might be rejected.
