Introduction to the NetFile SEI Admin System
About the NetFile System
The NetFile SEI Admin System enables departments to administer their Form 700 program online and accept Form 700 filings electronically. The system keeps track of filings, determines whether they are filed on time, and populates and notifies filers of their annual filing requirements. The System gives departments the ability to add and edit filers’ information as well as the ability to track filed disclosure statements.
Online Filing
Once an e-filer submits their disclosure statement via the online Filer Portal, a redacted version is immediately available for the public to search. Moreover, departmental filing officers can download an un-redacted version of the filed statement at any time.
NetFile System Access and Software Requirements
The NetFile system is internet-based. Any computer and operating system with Internet access and most modern browsers are compatible. System pages may display slightly differently depending on the browser you use.
