  6. Electronic Submission Registration • You need to do all of the following in order to become a registered E-submitter: • If you have not already done so, establish a NYC.ID account and become an ACRIS registered user: • Select the Create Tax Forms/Create Cover Page option from the ACRIS Main Menu. • Click on the Create an Account button. • If you have already established an account, Select the Create Tax Forms/Create Cover Page option from the ACRIS Main Menu. • Log in as a Registered User. • On the Select ACRIS Profile screen, click the Register for E-submission button and click OK. • Print and complete the ACRIS Registered Submitter Registration Agreement and Enrollment for eRecording Application and submit it. • Receive an email approving your E-submission Registration Request. • Note that is not sufficient to just complete and submit the application. 7

  7. E-Check ACH Debit Block • E-Check payments to the New York City Department of Finance are processed by ClearTran as ACH debits. Some financial institutions offer a “Debit Block” service for some banking accounts. A Debit Block is a restriction placed on a bank account to prevent unauthorized debits to the account. A debit block must be removed before an ACH Debit transaction can occur successfully. If you are unsure if your bank account has a debit block, contact your financial institution for more information. • For ACH Debits, you may also provide your bank with the New York City Department of Finance’s ACH Company ID and bank – 1136400434 / Bank of America. This number allows your bank to identify the New York City Department of Finance as an acceptable party to debit the account and bypass a debit block. 8

  8. Portal Company MOU • Does each portal company require? • Submission of drafts to DOF for review • Ability to revise • Timing 9

  9. Open Discussion & Notes • The following items / issues were discussed • 10/23/2013 • Go Live Planning should start now. Any concerns you have regarding planning or ramp up can be addressed in private emails sent to acrisadministrator@finance.nyc.gov 10

  10. Open Discussion & Notes • The following items / issues were discussed • 10/30/2013 • Per page fees for Cover Page – Cover Pages are created and included in the transaction just like paper submissions (as part of the preview action). As such the fees are the same including the per page fees for the Cover Pages. • Electronic payment testing with test checking account and credit card numbers is expected. The test checking account and credit card numbers are available in the dev/test resources site http://acrissds.nyoss.com/ACRIS_WS_Resources/EPayments. • If you would like a walk through of the signup, contact us at acrisadministrator@finance.nyc.gov. • Address MOU as soon as possible. The questions to consider are: • Is an MOU required ? • Can the MOU be revised if it is required? • Can you start electronic submission without an MOU executed if it is required? 11
