Click on the Create an Account button.

• On the Select ACRIS Profile screen, click the Register for E-submission button and click
OK.

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.

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
[email protected].
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?
