Will a motor vehicle installment seller be required to file an annual report?
A motor vehicle installment seller is now required to file an annual report with the Division of Banking. The report must be filed for the period of January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007.
What type of information will a motor vehicle installment seller be required to include in the annual report?
The following information must be collected from 1/1/07 forward and maintained to complete the annual report. To ensure consistency of reporting, please utilize the following example of net amount financed. For example, if the net amount financed is $9,000, and the warranty and other fees put the final net amount financed at $10,500, this transaction gets reported in the $10,000 or less category.

Is there a filing deadline for the annual report?
All annual reports must be filed no later than April 1, 2008 for the January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007 reporting period. Annual reports are expected to be filed electronically over the Internet through the State's secure web site.
What if I cannot file my annual report electronically?
All annual report filings should be filed electronically. If you cannot file your annual report electronically, then you must file a “hardcopy request form” - this form can be obtained by calling Al Dillione at 609-292-7272 ext. 50436.
Once the Division of Banking receives your request form, it will be processed and a hardcopy annual report form will be sent to you. The hardcopy annual reporting deadline is March 1, 2008. The earlier deadline for hardcopy filings is required to permit time for the Department to manually input your annual report information into the computer database.
What is the penalty for filing the annual report late?
If the filing of the annual report is late, you may be subject to a late penalty of $50 for each day the annual report filing is late. The Division of Banking MUST have report information on ALL licensees in order to properly assess and bill all licensees. Therefore, the Division may act to suspend or revoke the license(s) of a licensee that continues to fail to file its required report. |
