Information about filing MVLEF electronically

The New York State Department of Financial Services' Bureau of Taxes & Accounts (BTA) has developed a system to allow insurance companies to electronically submit and remit payment for required filings. The Department has a secure portal for companies to access and submit the required information. The electronic payments will be made through ACH debits. We will be able to accept filings for the Motor Vehicle Law Enforcement Fee (MVLEF) as of 1/15/09. Additional filing types will be accepted in the future.

Every company must identify an individual to serve as a local security administrator called a "Trusted Source". That person has the right to electronically approve new submitters and reviewers for their company without BTA's intervention. A Trusted Source must be a senior level Person responsible for making decisions on who should have access granted or terminated. They will be responsible for notifying the BTA if they can no longer serve in this role. The Trusted Source and submitters will need to create a portal account if they do not already have one.

To sign up for electronic filing for MVLEF, you must provide information about the individual who will have this function at your company. The contact information must include name, title, address, telephone, and email. This individual will be notified shortly with instructions on creating an account. Please respond by email to billing@dfs.ny.gov with this information.

We will grant up to two different people Trusted Source privilege per company.
