Texas.gov Message to County Tax Assessor-Collectors

Posted on May 17, 2019 by TxDMV

Please review and distribute as appropriate.

As you may be aware, the Texas.gov payment provider (NIC) transitioned the payment processor to First Data over the past several months. TxDMV, DIR and NIC greatly appreciate your cooperation to make the transition a success. Effective May 2, 2019, all counties were migrated to the First Data processor and NIC is actively trying to provide First Data portal credentials to a designated county staff member. The First Data portal will allow the counties to access chargeback documentation via an online tool in lieu of paper processing.

Due to the sensitivity of providing these credentials, NIC sent a survey on March 29, 2019, to obtain the contact information for your county. The survey was sent from TXpaymentupdate@egov.com and credentials are being emailed from MerchantServices@BusinessTrack.com. If you have experienced any issue with the email being received, please contact the Texas.gov Help Desk for assistance, at the number listed below. The Help Desk will be able to start the resolution process to allow your county to receive your credentials.

We’ve been working with DIR and NIC to address issues you have brought to our attention. Below is an update provided by DIR:

  • The First Data batch cutoff time of 3:00 a.m. means that funds are arriving one day later than they used to. As a result, reports will be for Day 3 instead of Day 2.
  • We understand that some banks are showing funds as “pending.” This is based on the way county funds are handled by some banking institutions when funds are expected but have not yet been received.
  • Please remember the First Data training provided by Texas NIC to counties is available on the TxDMV website on the TAC Hub under the Webinars & Presentations tab. You can access the presentation directly at https://www.txdmv.gov/reports-and-data/doc_download/8649-texas-gov-payment-processor-transition.

Additionally, DIR is working with the Texas.gov Help Desk to better equip their staff to address your questions. Please continue to send your questions to the Texas.gov Help desk at 1-877-452-9060 or support@texasgovhelpdesk.com.

Thank you,

Posted on April 10, 2019 by TxDMV

Please review and distribute as appropriate.

The latest update to the Salvage/Nonrepairable Motor Vehicle Manual (attached) is now available via Registration and Title System workstations and at www.txdmv.gov.

We welcome your feedback and encourage you to email any comments or suggestions to VTR_Title_Reg-Manual-Update@txdmv.gov (please note the underscores between VTR and Title and between Title and Reg).

Chapter 2 – Title Application and Issuance
Section 2.4, “Application for Salvage or Nonrepairable Vehicle Title,” was updated to provide information regarding the acceptability of electronic signatures. An electronic signature may only be used on a secure document if the secure document is submitted to the department through webSALVAGE. Non-secure documents may be signed with electronic signatures whether submitted to the department physically or through webSALVAGE.

Chapter 4 – Insurance Companies
Section 4.3, “Applications Without Proper Evidence of Ownership,” was updated to remove the requirement for proof of a paid claim by an insurance company in accordance with Registration and Title Bulletin #001-19.

Chapter 8 – Replacements, Errors, and Innocent Purchasers
Section 8.5, “Salvage Document or COA Issued in Error,” was updated to remove the reference to a Certificate of Authority (COA) issued prior to October 1, 2007. The issue date of the COA does not affect the procedure to reinstate a prior Texas title record when a COA is issued in error.

As of today, April 4th, 2019, the TxDMV Warehouse located on the TDCJ-Wynne Unit in Huntsville TX is still under a lock-down. We received a small work crew today and will begin processing all pending orders.
Currently, we are running about three work days behind schedule. This includes supplies ordered from the warehouse and special plate production. Small emergency orders received through allocations will be filled ASAP.  Emergency orders consist of warehouse
items (non-special plates) that will sustain a county or region that is near depletion for a few days. These orders must be kept to a minimum as they will be shipped Fed Ex.

 

An update to the lock-down status will be provided as information is received from TDCJ.

Resolved: Issues Regarding Certified Copies of Texas Titles (CCOs) Following RTS 9.2 Release

Posted on February 18, 2019 by TxDMV

Good Morning,

Following the release of RTS 9.2, specific errors related to Texas title records were identified, the following of which were resolved by Saturday, February 16, 2019:

  • When an existing Texas Title record is not found in a Title Event, Texas
    Ownership Evidence types will be unavailable for selection in the
    drop-down on the Ownership Evidence screen.

    Contact your local Regional Service Center should an existing Texas title record
    not be found when a Texas title type is surrendered as ownership evidence. 
    The Regional Service Center will confirm the validity of the surrendered ownership
    evidence and request Vehicle Data Management staff add the record to the
    Registration and Title System to facilitate completion of the transaction.

  • When an existing Texas Title record is found, the following message
    will be presented to the clerk if Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin
    is selected on the Ownership Evidence screen.

    Texas title ownership

    The surrendered ownership evidence should be reviewed to ensure the correct
    ownership evidence type was selected when presented with this message.


As always, if you run into a scenario where a Texas title cannot be processed when there is not a business reason for it to be stopped, please request an authorization override code and log a ticket
with as many details as possible to help us accurately identify the issue.

If you have any questions, please contact a Customer Service representative at our Consumer Relations Division. If you would like to speak to a Customer Service representative, please call us at 512-465-3351. Customer Service is available from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time, Monday through Friday. 

 

Thank you,
