Check Seller and Money Transmitter License Renewal Deadline
Thank you to those licensees who completed the online license renewal and sent in supporting documentation in a timely manner. Licensees that were approved should be able to access the Department's website to obtain their license certificate for 2013.
The expiration date for all check seller and money transmitter licenses was December 31, 2012. Licensees who failed to submit a renewal application prior to the December 31st expiration must reapply to have their license reinstated. This requires the submission of a new license application form and all supporting documents and fees. The application form is the same as for new applicants and can be found on the Department's website at: http://dbf.georgia.gov/documents/application-sale-check-ormoney-transmitter-license.
Please take note of the following reminders for next year's renewals:
The surety bond needed is for the NEXT LICENSE YEAR and it should cover the calendar year. If necessary, please contact your insurance agent and change your bond to cover the calendar year.
Remember that a continuation certificate must indicate the expiration of the bond. Although the bond is perpetual, it only covers the timeframe that you have actually paid for it to cover.
If you have questions, please contact Teresa Koeppel at (770) 986-1639 or via e-mail at msb@dbf.state.ga.us. Please be sure to include your license number on any communication with the Department. This will allow us to assist you more quickly and efficiently.
DID YOU FORGET YOUR PASSWORD?
The Department has created a password retrieval site for MSB licensees and registrants who have forgotten their login information. https://bkgfin.dbf.state.ga.us/MSBForgotPassword.html
A link to the password retrieval site is provided from the various online process and payment websites for MSBs. Once a license or registration number is entered and verified through the site, the password is sent to the primary e-mail address on file for the license or registration. If the primary contact information for a license or registration has changed, please contact msb@dbf.state.ga.us.

Semi-Annual Reporting: Check Sellers and Money Transmitters
By now, all Check Seller and Money Transmitter licensees should have received the Department's e-mail regarding Semi-Annual Reporting. These reports must be made by the licensee through the Department's online reporting system. The report that is due covers the period of July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012.
Passwords for accessing the online reporting system are e-mailed to the licensee's primary contact listed in the Department's records. Please make certain that the e-mail the Department has on file for your company is correct.
The online system for Check Seller Semi-Annual Reporting is found at: https://bkgfin.dbf.state.ga.us/CSSemiAnnualReport.html
The online system for Money Transmitter Semi-Annual Reporting is found at: https://bkgfin.dbf.state.ga.us/MTSemiAnnualReport.html

Licensees should ensure that their average outstanding checks and outstanding transactions are calculated correctly. During 2013, licensees may be contacted to provide proof of the outstandings shown on the SemiAnnual Reports.
Licensees must complete the Semi-Annual Reporting by March 1, 2013. Any licensee not filing a report by that date may be subject to a fine, administrative action, or both.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you experience any problems with the online system, please contact Teresa Koeppel at (770) 986-1639 or via e-mail at msb@dbf.state.ga.us. Please be aware that our overnight processing normally occurs between 5 - 7 PM EST. You will NOT be able to access the website while these update processes run.

Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) E-Filing System
As of July 1, 2012, all financial institutions subject to Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) reporting must use electronic filing (E-Filing) for certain FinCEN reports. FinCEN will no longer accept most paper filings, and has allowed extensions and exemptions only in certain circumstances.
BSA E-Filing, which is provided free of charge, offers streamlined BSA information submission; faster routing of information to law enforcement; greater data security and privacy compared with paper forms; long-term cost savings to institutions, individuals, and the government; and ensures compatibility with future versions of FinCEN reports.
For more information about BSA E-Filing, please review the E-Filing Section on FinCEN's website. For technology-related questions specific to E-Filing, please contact the BSA E-Filing Help desk at 1-866-346-9478.

Reminder Regarding GCIC Criminal Background Checks
The Department does not accept third party criminal background checks. Normally, third party checks do not cover the person's whole lifetime, as is required by our laws governing Money Service Businesses (MSBs). Often, these reports gather information from a variety of sources and not from the Georgia Crime Information Center (GCIC).
Please obtain your background checks from local law enforcement agencies providing this service before you hire new employees involved in the check cashing, check selling or money transmission function (i.e., anyone who can sign on the bank account or handle your funds). Keep the reports on file and, as a best practice, obtain new reports every two years.

Upcoming Check Cashing Classes
On Tuesday, April 9, 2013, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., the Department will be conducting a check cashing class at State Offices South at Tift College, Forsyth, Georgia. There is no cost for the class. The following topics will be covered: Check casher laws and regulations, the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and Anti-Money Laundering requirements. Please email your reservations to Teresa Koeppel at tkoeppel@dbf.state.ga.us no later than Friday, March 22, 2013.
Location of the class: STATE OFFICES SOUTH AT TIFT COLLEGE 300 Patrol Road Forsyth, GA 31029
During 2013, the Department will continue to hold a class at it's main office every other month that is open to all check cashers. The class benefits first-time check cashers and veteran check cashers. Classes are scheduled on Tuesdays at 10:00 a.m. and generally last about an hour and a half. There is no cost for the class and it is a great way to learn about Georgia law, Department regulations, the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and Anti-Money Laundering requirements. During examinations, those who have attended the class have stated that the knowledge and information they gained helped prevent violations and avoid the imposition of fines. As a further benefit, the Department provides a certificate of attendance that licensees may use as evidence of training received on BSA and Anti-Money Laundering.
