A form of docketing statement prescribed under this subsection:
(1) Shall be published in the Pennsylvania Code.
(2) Shall not be integrated into a single document covering the requirements of the filing and its related docketing statement.
(3) May be required by the department in connection with a filing only if notice of the requirement appears on the official format for the filing prescribed by the department.
(4) Shall not be required to be submitted on department-furnished forms.
(5) Shall not constitute a document filed in, with or by the department for the purposes of this title or any other provision of law except 18 Pa.C.S. ยง 4904 (relating to unsworn falsification to authorities).
(b) Transmission to Department of Revenue.--The department shall note on the docketing statement the fact and date of the filing to which the docketing statement relates and shall transmit a copy of the docketing statement or the information contained therein to the Department of Revenue. If a docketing statement is not required for a particular filing, the Department of State may transmit a copy of the filing or the information contained therein to the Department of Revenue at no cost to the person effecting the filing.
(c) Transmission to other agencies.--If the docketing statement delivered to the Department of State sets forth any kind of business in which a corporation, partnership or other association may not engage without the approval of or a license from any department, board or commission of the Commonwealth, the Department of State shall, upon processing the filing, promptly transmit a copy of the docketing statement or the information contained therein to each such department, board or commission.
