Annual SEC financial filings, for foreign issuers, is due six months after the close of the company fiscal year. The SEC still suspended the ticker even though the fins were filed about a week before the suspension. Should a filing occur after the six month courtesy period, it is still considered delinquent when going by the letter of the SEC regulation.

Interesting that the Crystallex audited 2011 financials were filed on SEDAR, and PR'ed as such, July 16, 2012, saying in the PR that they would file a 20-F, "in the near term." It is unclear why Crystallex waited until only recently to file the 20-F on EDGAR.

The Big Question - Why would Crystallex wait nearly seven months before filing on EDGAR?
