Law Society of Saskatchewan DR UpdatesDR Updates Updated Reporting Process

Updated Reporting Process

January 20, 2022

As of January 1, 2020, all firms must now file an Annual Report with the Law Society of Saskatchewan to confirm specific rules and requirements are being met (Rule 903). This annual report is one of the new tools introduced as part of proactive firm regulation measures, and to modernize and streamline reporting requirements.

We have added the ability for non-lawyers to complete the annual report on behalf of the Designated Representative (DR). This is meant to allow bookkeepers or other staff to complete the form and upload the required supporting documentation. However, only the DR can submit the report on behalf of the firm. The DR remains responsible for the annual report, including the completeness and accuracy of the information provided and ensuring the report is submitted by the deadline.  Please log into your member profile to complete the form.

The deadline to submit to the Annual Report is March 31, 2022. Please note that submissions after March 31, 2022 will result in a penalty in accordance with Rule 1606 and failure to submit may result in disqualification from the practice of law in accordance with Rule 1612.

The Annual Report form does not “auto-save”. If you need to save your current progress or are going to be inactive in the form for more than 20 minutes, please scroll to the bottom and press “Save for later” to prevent any loss of information.

Rule 905 states that it is the Designated Representative’s obligation to submit the Annual Report. The form can be completed by an employee other than the Designated Representative, however it must be submitted through the DR’s membership credentials.

Once you have completed and submitted the Annual Report form, there is no need to print and submit a paper copy to us. An electronic copy of the submitted Annual Report will remain available to the DR at anytime within the DR’s online profile and can be printed for your records.

If you have any questions, please contact: [email protected]
