If you wish to make a payment for fees accrued on your client account or submit a payment to create a non-client account, in the event that you don't wish to file or search using a permanent account, you can go to the Land Registration Authority and let them know you wish to make a payment to the secured transactions filing office. You will give them your account name and present a photo id along with the payment. They will process the payment and provide you with a receipt number. Note: if you are creating a non-client account, the receipt number will be used to subsequently login to the account and perform work.

This information is for the payment processor at the Land Registration Authority.

1. When the person arrives at the LRA and says he or she wants to make a payment to the secured transaction filing office, first ask for the person’s name and photo identification (ID card, driver’s license, passport, etc.), and make note of the name.
2. Then ask if the payment is for a client account or is an advance payment for one-time use of the filing office. If it is for a client account, ask for the number of the client account, and make note of it.
3. Take the person’s payment. It may be cash or other form of payment ordinarily accepted by the registry. Deposit the payment to the Filing Office account in the bank.
4. Prepare a receipt for the payment and give it to the person making the payment.
5. Go to the filing office website at www.stformi.com and login using your login id and password.
6. Your Home Page should have a link to 'Enter Payment Receipt Details'. Click this link to open the payment entry screen.
7. In the payment entry screen:
1. Enter the receipt number from the receipt in the “Receipt No.” space.
2. If the payment is for a client account, select Client Account from the drop-down in the “Payment for” line. If the payment is for a one-time user, select Non-Client.
3. If the payment is for a client account, enter the client account number in the “Client Account” space. If the client doesn't know this number, use the Client Account Query under the Queries menu to locate the account and retrieve the number. If it is for a one-time user, bypass the Client Account line.
4. Enter the name of the person making the payment in the “Name of Payor” space.
5. Enter the amount of the payment in the “Amount of Payment” space.
6. Check the entry of the receipt number, the client account number and the amount carefully to make sure they are correctly entered.
7. Click on the “Submit” button to submit the information to the filing office database.
8. After you submit the information, the confirmation screen will be displayed with the information that was entered. Print it and give the copy to the person who made the payment.
9. Log out of the filing office website either by clicking the logout button on the top menu bar.
