NEW USEF ONLINE COMPETITION RENEWAL AND USEF/USDF JOINT ONLINE COMPETITION RENEWAL

For Immediate Release
Wednesday, May 13, 2009

In an effort to make the 2010 competition renewal and licensing fee payment more streamlined, we are pleased to announce the launch of the online competition renewal that will allow licensees to update, make a payment and submit their 2010 competition license renewal online. 2010 competitions wishing to have USDF recognition can also complete their USDF application online during the process.

In order to access the online renewal please go to the USEF website and log into the licensee's "My USEF" Account". The link to the My USEF Account is https://www.usef.org/_AUAIFrames/login/default.aspx. If the licensee does not have an account or does not know their ID; the ID can be found on the license agreements and license renewal applications. If you still need assistance, please contact the Competitions Department at 859-258-2472.

Once you are signed in, scroll to the bottom of the page to the area labeled "For Secretaries" and click on the link "License Renewal". This will bring up all the competitions available for update, payment and renewal. Click on the "Select" option next to the competition you want to choose and this will take you to the information screens related to that competition.

If you prefer to pay by check, you can fill in the information online, print it out and mail it in with your payment. Please make all checks payable to USEF. If you are paying for a jointly recognized competition, USEF will remit the application fee to USDF. If you are unable to access the online renewal please e-mail or fax your information with the competition number, name of licensee, name of competition and date of competition to Michele Hoskins at mhoskins@usef.org or via fax at 859-231-6662.
