Surcharge reporting

County vital records offices must remit vital records surcharges they collect to Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) each month. In addition, they must report fee revenue to OVR each month. Monthly remittance and reporting helps OVR track fee revenue and avoid spending more than we collect. File your report using the Vital Records Surcharge Reporting form no later than the 10th of the month following the issuance of certificates.
