ITEM 8.01 Other Events.

Application for a 45-days extension of the filing deadline of the 10-K.

Kidoz Inc. ("The Company") seeks an extension of 45 days to file its annual report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, based on the Securities and Exchange Commission Order Under Section 36 Of The Securities Exchange Act Of 1934 Granting Exemptions From Specified Provisions Of The Exchange Act And Certain Rules set forth in Release No. 34-88318, issued March 4, 2020, which authorizes the Commission to exempt, either conditionally or unconditionally, any person, security or transaction, or any class or classes of persons, securities, or transactions, from any provision or provisions of the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder, to the extent that such exemption is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, and is consistent with the protection of investors. The Company will delay the filing of it's Annual Report on Form 10-K, originally due Monday, March 30, 2020.

On March 11, 2020, the Company took the decision that its employees will commence working from home so as to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

The spread of Coronavirus related illness, such as COVID-19, within the offices of the Company or among its key employees, notwithstanding work-from-home arrangements, could severely impair the operational capabilities of the Company resulting in harm to the Company's business and its operating results.

The Company has operations in Israel which commenced government issued lock down policies on March 11, 2020.  The audit of our Israeli subsidiary has been severely affected by this lock down and this has caused unexpected audit delays and therefore it has not been possible for them to complete the audit in time to file our Form 10-K in a timely manner. 

The Company anticipates filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K by no later than April 25, 2020.
