Administrative Letter 2009-10

To: All Insurers Licensed and Recognized in Virginia

Re: Premium Tax and Assessment Practices and Procedures

Pursuant to §§ 58.1-2526 and 38.2-406 of the Code of Virginia, the State Corporation Commission Bureau of Insurance has developed and requires the Virginia Tax Packet Payment Voucher (Payment Voucher) to be filed as part of the annual tax and assessment forms due March 1 of each year. The purpose of the Payment Voucher is to provide companies the ability to pay all amounts due with one check. Payments not submitted with the Payment Voucher will not be processed. Payments received without the Payment Voucher will be sent back to the insurer with instructions to file the Payment Voucher.  Penalties and interest will apply to any payments made after the due date. The Payment Voucher must be downloaded from our website address at http://www.scc.virginia.gov/division/boi/webpages/boiinstaxinsurancecoinfo.htm or requested from the Administrative Tax Unit at [phone], if you do not have access to the website.

The State Corporation Commission Bureau of Insurance will no longer refund monies collected as a result of companies’ failure to properly complete the Retaliatory Tax Report.  Companies later determining that funds were paid in error will have to apply via a formal petition for the correction of taxes pursuant to § 58.1-2030 of the Code of Virginia.  The application shall be by written petition, in duplicate and verified by affidavit.

Questions regarding this letter may be directed to: Brian P. Gaudiose, Deputy Insurance Commissioner, Administrative Division, State Corporation Commission, P.O. Box 1157, Richmond, VA 23218, telephone [phone].

Beginning with Volume 26, Issue 1 of the Virginia Register of Regulations dated September 14, 2009, the Cumulative Table of Virginia Administrative Code Sections Adopted, Amended, or Repealed will no longer be published in the Virginia Register of Regulations.

Filing Material for Publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations

Agencies are required to use the Regulation Information System (RIS) when filing regulations for publication in the Virginia Register of Regulations. The Office of the Virginia Register of Regulations implemented a web-based application called RIS for filing regulations and related items for publication in the Virginia Register. The Registrar's office has worked closely with the Department of Planning and Budget (DPB) to coordinate the system with the Virginia Regulatory Town Hall. RIS and Town Hall complement and enhance one another by sharing pertinent regulatory information.

The Office of the Virginia Register is working toward the eventual elimination of the requirement that agencies file print copies of regulatory packages. Until that time, agencies may file petitions for rulemaking, notices of intended regulatory actions and general notices in electronic form only; however, until further notice, agencies must continue to file print copies of proposed, final, fast-track and emergency regulatory packages.
