2023 Annual Late Filing Report Schedule

Mar 1, 2024 | Procedural Updates

The 2023 Annual Late Filing report will be generated on Monday, March 18, 2024. As a reminder, policies are considered late if not filed with SLTX within 60 days of issue date or the effective date, whichever is later.

In compliance with the Texas Administrative Code, SLTX must submit the report each year to the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) no later than the first business day in April. Once the report is sent to TDI, no additional changes can be made. Previously approved adjustments on policies included on a monthly late filing report should be considered timely filed, and will not be included on the annual report.

As you receive SMART’s email notification on March 18th, you may access the 2023 Annual Late Filing Report in SMART. You can find SMART’s “how to” user guide by following this link. SLTX will send the official Annual Late Filing Report by certified mail to agents and agencies included in the report. Those who are not included in the report will not see it listed in SMART and will not receive a letter from SLTX.

The report will include:

  • A list of all late policies,

  • Number of days late for each,

  • Total percentage of late policies for the year,

  • A calculation of total fees due and,

  • Number of policies sent to enforcement, if any.

Assessments and enforcement actions are determined by statute (6 TIC 981.105) and all fees should be submitted directly to TDI. The TDI Late Filers Fee Payment Form will be included within the certified mailing.
