In the topics that follow, we outline the process for the electronic filing of Excess Line Association of New York (ELANY) taxes, as set forth by the state of New York. This guide shows the basic setup necessary to file taxes in New York using Tax Manager, the functions of the Tax Manager application, and the creation of the file to be submitted to ELANY.
This guide is intended for users that are familiar with the Agency Information Manager (AIM) and Data Maintenance Utility (DMU) applications. We will show you some of the requirements necessary in the AIM system for using the Tax Manager, but your AIM system should already be set up to use New York taxes.
Requirements and Setup
Some setup is required before you can begin using the Tax Manager application. We will guide you through the steps necessary to begin filing taxes with ELANY.
This version of Tax Manager is supported in the following versions of AIM system software:
- AIM 6.9.0 or later
- Process Manager 6.9.0 or later
Review and complete the steps for setup in the New York Tax Manager Setup topic of Data Maintenance Utility Help.
