MPF® Annual Eligibility Certification

Certification Overview

Continued participation in the MPF program requires all Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs) to complete the MPF Annual Eligibility Certification (AEC). This process may only be completed online within the eMPF website; paper forms are not accepted.

2024 AEC Time Frame: The process opens January 2 and completion is required by January 31. This allows PFIs continued participation in the MPF program, without interruptions or penalties.

There are two steps to the online certification process, to be completed within the eMPF website.

  1. Step 1: Submit Online Forms

    • Log into the eMPF website to access the required forms using the Quick Links tile.
    • Complete the two required forms:
      • Form OG1: MPF Participating Financial Institution Annual Eligibility Certification Form
      • Form OG2: MPF Fidelity and Errors & Omissions Insurance Worksheet
    • After completing each form, press 'Submit." PFIs are responsible for the accuracy of all information submitted on the forms; it is important all information is verified.
    • Who May Complete the Online Forms? The forms must be submitted electronically via the eMPF® website by an employee of the PFI or Servicer who has delegated authority per 1) the MPF Resolution or 2) the "Sign PFI Agreement/Amendments" authority within eMPF. Your eMPF Security Admin can delegate the "Sign PFI Agreement/Amendments" authority within eMPF. 

    Note: Sessions time out after 30 minutes of inactivity and any information not saved will need to be re-entered.
