Remitting Reports
Remittance reports are sent directly to MLSC, not with checks to the P.O. Box. Also, for each monthly/quarterly remittance period, copies of “Notice of New IOLTA Account/IOLTA Enrollment Form” should be submitted to MLSC for each new account.
A monthly/quarterly Remittance Report and copies of individual new IOLTA enrollment forms should be prepared showing:
- the name of the lawyer or law firm for whom the remittance is sent
- the account number
- the collected average monthly balance
- the rate of interest applied
- gross interest
- any service charges assessed
- the net amount remitted for the account
- total for all numeric columns
The Remittance Report with this information must be provided in Excel format or CSV (comma separated value) format. The form on this web site is provided in Excel format along with CSV (comma separated value) format instructions.
Reports must be submitted electronically by e-mail to iolta@mlsc.org or mailed on disk to MLSC (15 Charles Plaza, Suite 102, Baltimore, MD 21201).
Please note that remittance reports are sent directly to MLSC, whereas remittance payments are sent directly to MLSC’s depository bank. Do not send Remittance Reports with remittance checks to the MLSC post office box. Also, for each monthly/quarterly remittance period, copies of “Notice of New IOLTA Account/IOLTA Enrollment Form” should be submitted to MLSC for each new account.
