financial information for the current year  
must cover the period beginning on the

annual accounting period and ending on

first day of the current accounting period,  
no financial information is required for the  
current year. Financial information is  
required for the 3 preceding years  
regardless of the current year  
requirements. Please note that if no  
financial information is required for the  
current year, the preceding year’s

application.
