Registration process:
A one-time only interview process allows us to collect all of the basic information required by the carriers. This secured information is then used to automatically populate the forms required by any and all of the carriers you wish to be contracted with immediately, and in the future. Here’s how it works:
- The agent registration page requires you to create a UserID, Password and PIN. You will get a confirmation email to the address you provided verifying your UserID, Password and PIN for future use.
- Make sure you have available the following: your E&O policy information; driver’s license information, previous address; employment history; carrier affiliations; license information; and direct deposit banking information. You will be asked a series of questions regarding your personal and address information, business/corporate information, legal history, direct deposit information and carrier specific questions.
- After answering all contracting questions, you will be directed to the carrier submission page. Make sure you checkmark the carriers you would like to submit for approval at this time. You will be prompted to enter your PIN for identity verification.
- You must then print the fax coversheets provided on the next page to submit your required documents. Detailed instructions are provided at this step of the online questionnaire, as well as on the coversheets.
- Upon acceptance of your request to be contracted, you will receive an email stating that we have received your documents and begin processing your contracts. If any additional information is required, we will contact you.
- Those of you who have some commissions paid to a corporation and other commissions paid to an individual (self) will need to register twice – once for each entity.
- This process is to be used only for carriers you are not yet contracted with - you do not need to complete the process for carriers you are already contracted with.
If you have questions regarding Efficient Contracting please contact your Licensing Specialist, Jayleen Elliott.
