Hi Penni, Thank you you did a such beautiful explanation right now I have some problem of my fmcsa and it’s so confusing. The person who file my authority before that I can frozen if I don’t use it but the question how to freeze it? And another question if I freeze it do I still can use the EIN? I need help for all this confusing stuff. Thank you
Thank you so much for these videos!! very informative you mentioned we don't have to complete everything in 20 days, what is the exact time frame for the submission?
HI Penni, Great informative video. Should I update the MC-150 with just filing this year? It looks as it helps by showing that there is history of mileage to "satisfy the system"?
Off topic: Have you heard about after completing the DOT & MC number and get to the $300 page and the FMCSA is is not able to accept electronic payments. Now today is Sunday. Are they online closed on the weekends for payment?
@@Evilsizor Hello Ms. Penni! What is the fasted way to get working as a freight broker without practical freight broker experience? Does military movements overseas or within multiple states count as familiarization?
I have DOT but didn't file for MC as I have not purchased Equipment. However, I may be interested in running Intrastate(Illinois) for a short time before obtaining MC, and the state says I don't need a cab card if I've registered UCR. Can I register UCR and BOC3 before getting the authority? Is that prudent? Should I still update history of mileage?
Hi Ms Penny. Does secret # 3, Update Your MCS-150 apply to people like myself, who are registering as a brand new company, or is it for those who are updating their DOT registration after two years of being in business?
Hello 👋 I just filled out my application on the fmcsa website for my authority. I was given my USDOT # and I went ahead and filed for my BOC 3. Did I file to early? And if I did what do I need to do.? Thanks in advance.
Hello. I’m new here still trying to figure this out. Got DOT, UCR, EIN. I’m staying under 26,000 lbs do I still have to have ifta and what about logs? Are those required? Getting mixed answers. Thank you so much in advance.
@@Evilsizor the one in the video, I was able to figure it out. However brokers are asking how the DOT number is avail since last year, they are saying this is illegal. ?
Do you think my authority will get revoked if me and my wife are attached to company while having an active DOT number during the entree audit? We are in the companies drug program we are attached too and I have DQ files on us both but I just haven’t executed them due to being attached
@@ItsLizzB I just got approved on my IRP account today while still being attached but from what I understand the safety audit happens between the 3 month and 18 month so when it happens I’ll ask that question
It's just a way to remove the Carrier VMT Outdated notification on your account. I've had some carriers that needed this removed before a broker would work with them.
It’s helpful for me. I do have one question. What if you click on the pending application and it says no data available. Is that something I should be concerned about? I hope I’m not too late asking this question here. Thank you in advance.
LOL - good advice. DO NOT answer the phone for awhile.

You’re welcome!
how far do I go on this timeline without a truck? We are still in the process of purchasing a truck.
You can go up to a year!
Thanks 🙏 really appreciate it your time and help
My pleasure!
Thank you so much for these videos!! very informative
you mentioned we don't have to complete everything in 20 days, what is the exact time frame for the submission?
Technically you have up to a year. Just watch for a dismisses status. That means extra paperwork will be required but won’t hinder the process.
Great Video
Thanks!
HI Penni, Great informative video. Should I update the MC-150 with just filing this year? It looks as it helps by showing that there is history of mileage to "satisfy the system"?
Yes, it never hurts to update your MCS-150.
Off topic: Have you heard about after completing the DOT & MC number and get to the $300 page and the FMCSA is is not able to accept electronic payments. Now today is Sunday. Are they online closed on the weekends for payment?
Sometimes they take the systems down for maintenance.
Great video is there any difference between the MC for an Owner operator than the broker and the dispatcher or ne person can use the same MC.
I’ve been pondering this question. Can you elaborate?
Thank you
You’re welcome!
Question 1, must you apply for DOT number first if your are a brokerage?
No. When applying for a broker you will get a DOT & MC at the same time.
Thanks
You’re welcome!
HI Penni, Great informative video. Should I update the MC-150 if registering for broker authority even though I have a CDL?
A broker does not need to update the MCS150. That’s only required for carriers.
@@Evilsizor Hello Ms. Penni! What is the fasted way to get working as a freight broker without practical freight broker experience? Does military movements overseas or within multiple states count as familiarization?
Hi Penni I have applied first time for my dot number and Mc number I have waited 21 days what should I do next
Not sure where you are in the process. Would be a good idea to call the office at 303-482-2965.
Hello thanks a lot for the help. I got stuck at getting my Pin Number. Everything looks correct its just not sending the Pin can you help
Did you check your spam! Sometimes it lands there.
Can I use a virtual office address for fmcsa registration?
Yes you can.
thank you for the info, so as today i was trying to get my pin but it doesnt allow me, will they mail me the pin or do i have to request.
The govt can only mail the PIN
how are you doing, if you got insurance after 21 days your authority will active?
Should be depending on the application status and acceptance date. Check the Licensing and Insurance for updates.
I have DOT but didn't file for MC as I have not purchased Equipment. However, I may be interested in running Intrastate(Illinois) for a short time before obtaining MC, and the state says I don't need a cab card if I've registered UCR. Can I register UCR and BOC3 before getting the authority? Is that prudent? Should I still update history of mileage?
No. You cannot file for a BOC until you get an MC number. Yes still file your biennial update every 2 years.
@@Evilsizor Thank You. You have provide great information. God Bless
Hi Penni.Do you provide training to apply U.S authorities, permits, compliance etc as I want to start my own business..Thanks
No not at the moment. I have thought about it though.
WHEN TO FIRST TIME FILL MCS- 150? WHEN JUST STARTED BUSINESS ,THANK YOU
It depends on your DOT #. The last digit = Month, the NEXT to last digit = Year (odd/even)
Hi Ms Penny. Does secret # 3, Update Your MCS-150 apply to people like myself, who are registering as a brand new company, or is it for those who are updating their DOT registration after two years of being in business?
It applies to both. Even as a new carrier you should do an update.
So will my authority be approve if I don’t have insurance yet?
No. Insurance and the BOC are the required filings to activate your authority.
Hello 👋 I just filled out my application on the fmcsa website for my authority. I was given my USDOT # and I went ahead and filed for my BOC 3. Did I file to early? And if I did what do I need to do.? Thanks in advance.
You can file the BOC at any time. Wait at least 2 weeks from when you applied to file your insurance.
I was denied access to a load board because i have no vmt info
Did you fix that by filing your MCS150?
What do i change to fix it my miles traveled?
Does anyone know how long it takes to get undissmissed if you miss the 90 days
Yes. One week as long as all of the requirements have been met.
What name goes on the carrier name
The legal name of the carrier.
Are you in California?
Or do you help in California ?
This might be a dumb question
We are located in Colorado but assist clients all over the US including California.
@@Evilsizor what’s the best number to reach you at?
What is VMT?
Vehicle Mileage. Can’t remember what the T stands for. Update the mileage and this notice will disappear.
Hello. I’m new here still trying to figure this out. Got DOT, UCR, EIN. I’m staying under 26,000 lbs do I still have to have ifta and what about logs? Are those required? Getting mixed answers. Thank you so much in advance.
If u crossing state lines u need ifta
you don’t need ifta if you’re doing non-cdl , if you’re driving with a cdl or driving over 26,001 you need those ifta stickers
i filed for my i authority a month a go and I still didn't get insurance yet is it too late now?
No it’s not too late. You’ve got time.
Bow much time im comin up on 30 days and i cant find the answer
If I’m box truck owner I have to add rolls too.
Rolls?
@@Evilsizor Yes, add rolls to your portal, thank you...
No. Only if your give is over 26000 for DACH.
Thank you very much, I have learned a lot with your videos, I am a Cuban who is starting his business here in the US ..... Thank you ....
Awesome! I’m so glad you found the videos helpful! That’s my goal!
It’s asking for “ some driver error must be entered “
What form are you filling out?
@@Evilsizor the one in the video, I was able to figure it out. However brokers are asking how the DOT number is avail since last year, they are saying this is illegal. ?
Do you think my authority will get revoked if me and my wife are attached to company while having an active DOT number during the entree audit? We are in the companies drug program we are attached too and I have DQ files on us both but I just haven’t executed them due to being attached
Are you currently leased on with another company while keeping your own authority active? Please elaborate. Thanks!
@@penniroyston2767 yes
@@AB-mg5sx that’s the same thing for us as well and would like to know this information too
@@ItsLizzB I just got approved on my IRP account today while still being attached but from what I understand the safety audit happens between the 3 month and 18 month so when it happens I’ll ask that question
This did not work, would not let me modify
What specifically are you trying to do?
I don’t understand why we should put 1 mile for previous year, could someone explain please?
It's just a way to remove the Carrier VMT Outdated notification on your account. I've had some carriers that needed this removed before a broker would work with them.
Be aware of scanners
Scammers
They added this BS to make more money. This BS is irrelevant.
Maybe it's irrelevant to you but it does help others get their account straight with the government.
