Section 17:33-4.1 - List of payment methods

1. Cash. The DORES discourages cash payment unless made in-person to the cashier at DORES.

2. Checks. This includes electronic checks submitted to DORES's Internet and other electronic services. For mail-in and over-the counter services requests, personal, cashier's, or certified checks made payable to the "Treasurer, State of New Jersey" are acceptable. This includes checks in an amount to be filled in by DORES, with a "not to exceed amount" instruction.

3. Prepaid account. A remitter may open an account for prepayment of fees for over-the-counter and mail-in UCC services by submitting an application furnished by DORES. The minimum balance for a pre-paid account is $ 250.00. DORES shall issue an account number to be used by a remitter who chooses to pay fees in advance. DORES shall deduct fees from the remitter's prepaid account whenever DORES either receives a work request from the remitter or processes work for the remitter. Upon written request to PO Box 455, Trenton, NJ 08646 (ATTN: UCC Depository Accounts), the DORES will provide an agreement form for establishing a prepaid account.

4. Credit card. DORES accepts credit card payments from VISA, Master Card, Discover, and American Express. Remitters shall provide the credit card number, the expiration date of the card, the name of the approved card issuer, the name of the person or entity to whom the card is issued, and the billing address for the card. Payment will not be deemed tendered until the issuer or its agent has confirmed that payment will be forthcoming.

1. DORES shall refund an overpayment amount upon the written request of the remitter.

2. Upon receipt of a filing or other work request with an insufficient fee, DORES shall send a refusal notice to the remitter or secured party with a written explanation. The remitter or secured party may resubmit the document or work request with an additional or new payment sufficient to cover the fee involved. Upon receipt of the sufficient fee, DORES will perform the requested filing, or otherwise process the work request involved.
