Maryland Interactive Driver and Vehicle Record Access User Guide Introduction The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration has partnered with NIC Maryland through a Master Contact with the Department of Information Technology and has developed a new method to obtain driver and vehicle record information. You must be authorized within the scope of the Driver Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) and have a subscription to the Interactive Driver and Vehicle Record Access service to access MVA records. This document provides an overview on using this service. As with the existing MVA system, this system may be unavailable to process search requests during maintenance windows. The current maintenance schedule is: • • • •

Nightly: 12:00AM – 12:30 AM EST Sunday: 6:00AM – 11:00 AM EST The second Saturday of every month from 11:00PM until 5:00 AM EST Tuesday and Thursday 5:00 PM EST

Overview The Interactive Driver and Vehicle Record Access service is a web-based application which allows authorized customers to access driver and vehicle records in real time. The service location is located at the following URL: https://egov.maryland.gov/mva/idvr/

Setting up Your User Account You will receive your login credentials in an email from [email protected]. After you receive your User Name, you will need to click on the link in the email to create your password. After your account has been successfully setup, you can begin record retrieval. Initial Sign On: Upon receiving your login information, you will need to go to https://egov.maryland.gov/accounts/resetpassword.aspx to set your password. After you set your password, you can login to your services. Passwords must be a minimum length of 8 characters. Password may not contain any part of your user name and/or last name and must contain 3 of the following: • • • •

Uppercase Lowercase Number Special Character

Record Fees There is a $12.00 record fee per driver and vehicle record, regardless of the number of pages contained in each record. Government agencies are not charged. Like most states, Maryland charges a record fee for “NO DRIVER RECORDS FOUND” and “NO VEHICLE RECORDS FOUND”. The MVA recognizes a requester might possibly enter a typo to cause a "no record found", however, in most cases, the requester requires confirmation of the fact that there is no record for a particular individual.

Refunds & Credits for Motor Vehicle Record Purchases NIC periodically receives requests for credits/refunds from customers who have purchased electronic motor vehicle records. This document describes the criteria and guidelines NIC will follow for requesting credits/refunds from the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA). NIC’s policy will remain consistent with the MVA’s mission to provide exemplary service by establishing specific criteria for issuing credits and/or refunds to customers who purchased motor vehicle records. A. Requests for credits/refunds must be submitted to NIC, in writing at [email protected], and must include the following documentation: a. The transaction date b. The customer’s account number c. Any identifying numbers (i.e., DLN, tag, title #) d. The reason for the request B. NIC will consider refunds/credits for requests requested and issued within the preceding three (3) months only. C. NIC will submit requests for credits/refunds to the Maryland MVA. The MVA will determine eligibility for refunds based on their established criteria and guidelines, transaction activity, and data reports. Transactions that MAY be eligible for a refund/credit include, but are not limited to: a. Any charge incurred by the customer as a result of an application error is refundable. b. Duplicate record searches entered and retrieved within two (2) business days. c. Duplicate records inadvertently ordered on the same date. d. Failed or invalid entries. e. New customer transaction errors (limited to five (5) record searches within the first sixty (60) days of active service.) This allows the client a period of time to become familiar with using the system, the user manual, etc. An example of an error may include entering the same tag number repeatedly with different vehicle class keys, in an attempt to determine the appropriate vehicle class key. f. The second and any subsequent record fees incurred for cross-referenced records. For example, a client enters a license number for Jane Doe and is charged a record fee. The client receives a message indicating the former license number is cross referenced to a new one (i.e., marital name change), and the client then enters the new license number to obtain the current record and is charged a second time. Only the second record fee is eligible for a refund. g. Records that have been requested, but not received. D. Transactions that are NOT eligible for a refund/credit include, but are not limited to: a. Record searches that result in no record found. b. Record searches for driver/vehicle activity. c. Record purchased and issued more than three (3) months prior to receipt of the refund request. d. Incorrect data entries that result in a record being provided. E. Any refund/credit requests not noted above will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the Maryland MVA. Credits approved by the MVA will be applied by NIC to the customer’s CDB account. Approved refund/credit requests from customers of the Point-to-point (PTP) and Interactive Driver and Vehicle Record (IDVR) systems, Driver Batch Monitoring (DBM) system, or Batch Vehicle Monitoring (BVA) system) will be credited directly to the customer invoice for the following month. Excess credits will roll over to additional month(s) until all credits are exhausted.
