Reporting Endorsements for Colorado and Kansas Policies Effective Pre-Go Live

SLIP+ has released a new bulletin outlining filing guidance in SLIP+ for Colorado and Kansas endorsements associated with policies that were originally filed in their legacy systems. Please see below for an excerpt of the bulletin:

Reporting Endorsements for Colorado and Kansas Policies Effective Pre-Go Live

NOTE: A correction has been made to the endorsement filing instructions, and the instructions below reflect the updated workflow for endorsements.

Submitting endorsements for Colorado or Kansas policies originally filed in their legacy systems must follow a specific SLIP+ workflow to ensure submissions are accepted. This workflow should be used when the original policy filing was submitted in the legacy system and now there is an endorsement to file in SLIP+ for States.

To complete these filings, use the following steps:

1. Start with a placeholder filing (Filings Tab → “New Policy”)

• Select New Business (Type 1) or Renewal (Type 5)
• Enter the true policy number
• Enter the correct effective dates
• Enter $0.00 premium

2. Submit the endorsement transaction (Transaction Details → “Add Transaction”)

• Additional Premium (Type 2)
• Return of Premium (Type 3)

Filing Guidelines

• All credit transactions (including cancellations) must be filed as Return Premium (Type 3) when manually filing in SLIP+ for States
• Cancellations can only be filed as Type 4 when submitted via CSV or XML upload
• A $0.00 premium initiating transaction (New Business or Renewal) is always required, so SLIP+ can validate the net premium and taxes collected by the state

Why Your Credit Transactions Will Be Questioned

• The SLIP+ calculator cannot reconcile credits to the $0.00 placeholder filing
• The system flags them as Unbalanced Return Premium (URP)
• This is expected for legacy policy endorsements

SLIP+ Review:

• SLIP+ team members will review the questioned transactions
• Confirm the original policy and tax payment with Colorado or Kansas
• Clear the TIQs and issue the appropriate credit once verification is complete

No action is required while TIQs remain open, and there is no negative impact on the broker.
