1. How do I submit a response? / Who do I contact if I have a question?

Please submit all questions and responses via email.

2. Can a response be submitted by group?

No. Please submit a separate worksheet for each company rather than submitting by group.

3. Should the number of policies or total written premium be recorded on the worksheet?

Please enter the total number of policies for each month and not the dollar amount of the premium written.

4. How often is a submission required and what months of data are required for each submission?

The data must be recorded monthly and reported to the department on a quarterly basis until further notice. The first submission was due Nov. 15, 2007, and covered the months Jan. through Sept. for 2006 and 2007 only.

Monthly data for Oct. through Dec. is requested by the subsequent Jan. 15 of the following year.

Subsequent submissions must be received by the 30th day following the end of each quarter thereafter and should, at a minimum, contain monthly data for the immediately preceding quarter (i.e. “current year”) and for the same months of the previous year (i.e. “prior year”).

5. Does the company need to submit an annual data certification?

Yes. The company will need to submit an annual data certification request as referenced in South Carolina Bulletin 2009-14 along with its fourth quarter data submission. This certification will need to be signed by an officer of the company, notarized, and submitted via email in PDF format.
