Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), EQ Advisors Trust (the “Registrant”) respectfully requests the withdrawal of the following Post-Effective Amendments, together with all exhibits thereto (collectively, the “Amendments”), to the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A:
| | | | | | |
Securities Act Post-Effective Amendment Number | | Date Filed | | Submission Type | | Accession Number |
148 | | 11/20/2020 | | 485APOS | | 0001193125-20-299324 |
150 | | 2/1/2021 | | 485BXT | | 0001193125-21-024072 |

The Amendments were filed for the purpose of registering shares of certain new series of the Registrant. The Registrant has since determined not to proceed at this time with this initiative and confirms that no securities have been sold in connection with the offering contemplated by the Amendments.
Pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 477 under the Securities Act, it is the Registrant’s understanding that this request for withdrawal of the Amendments will be deemed granted as of the date that it is filed with the Commission unless the Registrant is otherwise notified within 15 calendar days of the filing of this request.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact Mark Amorosi from K&L Gates LLP at (202) 778-9351.
