File No. 33-63246/811-7754
CIK No. 0000906320
Dear Sir or Madam:
On behalf of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio ("Western
Reserve") and the WRL Series Annuity Account (the "Account"), we are filing a
certification pursuant to paragraph (j) of Rule 497 under the Securities Act of
1933. In this regard, we certify that the form of Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information ("SAI") for certain deferred variable annuity contracts
offered by Western Reserve through the Account otherwise required to be filed
under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 would not have differed from the form of
Prospectus and SAI contained in the Form N-4 Registration Statement for the
Account (the "Registration Statement"). The Registration Statement was filed
electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2000 via
EDGAR.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or
concerns regarding this filing. I can be reached at (727) 299-1635.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Kimberly Scouller
