NYVIP
MESSAGE No.7 (2006)
5/10/2006
TO:
All INSPECTION STATIONS
FROM:
NYS DEPT. OF MOTOR VEHICLES
SUBJECT: FACILITY LICENSE RENEWALS REMINDER
We have noticed quite a few stations that end
up with their NYVIP units inoperable because they failed to renew in
a timely manner. We are sending out this reminder to help you avoid
problems if you fail to renew your facility license before it
expires. You must keep your facility licenses current in order to
perform NYS inspections on the NYVIP equipment. The only way to
update the facility information in the NYVIP unit when you renew your
license, is to scan the barcode on the new inspection station license
document. You must renew early enough to receive your new license
prior to the expiration date of your old license.
The quickest way to renew your license is to
renew on-line. Simply visit the DMV website at
<http://www.nysdmv.com>. Go to Online Transactions or scroll to
the bottom of the page and click on DMV Services then click on Renew
Facility Business Certificates. Click again on Renew Facility
Business Certificates and follow the directions for on-line renewal.
Payment can be made by credit card..
If you prefer to renew by mail, in order to
avoid an interruption of inspections your facility license should be
renewed well before the listed expiration date. Please allow
sufficient time for mailing and processing. In order to insure
continuous operation you should return your renewal as soon as you
receive it from us. In any event, you should renew at least 60 days
prior to expiration.
Certified Inspectors should also allow sufficient time to renew
their certified inspectors cards before expiration. Certified
Inspectors should also return the renewal as soon as they receive
notice from us. They should renew at least 60 days before
expiration. Certified inspectors cannot renew on-line at this time.
It is important that certified inspectors notify the DMV of address
changes in order to receive the renewal invitation.
The NYVIP unit stores the expiration date scanned
from both the facility license and the certified inspector’s
license. Before the expiration date, inspectors and facility owners
should scan their new license to store the new expiration
date. This is done in the Station Menu, choosing either Facility
Initialization/Facility License or Inspector IDs.
These are messages sent by NYS DMV to the
inspection stations via the emissions analyzer units. They frequently contain important
information, usage tips, or announcements of system changes.
