Which of the following is an acceptable means to deliver an IAR report?

• A. Submitting your report from the IAR Home page
• B. Emailing the report to ARC
• C. Mailing a paper copy to ARC headquarters
• D. Uploading via a third-party portal

Answer: (A)

Delivering an IAR report through ARC's official IAR system on the IAR Home page is the accepted method because it feeds the data directly into ARC's processing workflow, with built-in validation and an auditable, time-stamped record tied to your account. Submitting there ensures the report is properly captured, routed for processing, and available for reconciliation, often providing a confirmation or submission reference you can track. Sending the report by email, mailing a paper copy, or using a third-party portal bypasses ARC’s secure submission system, which can lead to lost data, delays, missing validations, and no reliable audit trail. In practice, you would log in to the IAR Home page, complete the report, and submit it there to ensure proper handling. If access to the IAR Home page is not possible, contact ARC support for guidance, but routine delivery should occur through the official IAR submission flow.
