A tag is a memo, either automatically generated by the system or manually generated by the processing analyst, advising the broker of any errors or incorrect/missing information in the filed documents.

The tag may be cleared by providing any missing information and/or providing corrected documents resolving discrepancies. If the response is incomplete or unacceptable, the tag may be forwarded to the California Department of Insurance for review.

There may be a delay in the processing of paper tag responses for many reasons.  The tag response may have been submitted without a copy of the tag, the tag response may not have been signed and/or dated, or the tag response may have been submitted as part of a batch.   

To avoid delays in processing paper tag responses, please attach the tag response to a copy of the paper tag, and ensure that the paper tag is signed and dated.  In addition, please do not submit tag responses as part of a batch filing.

Tags responded to through SLIP automatically clear from the broker’s list at the time the response is submitted.

“Tags” are notices the SLA issues to brokers pursuant to California Insurance Code §1780.56 regarding errors, discrepancies, missing information, or other problems in filed documents. As directed by the California Department of Insurance (“CDI”), tags are reported to CDI if not answered within the time specified in the tag. For more information see Bulletin #1470.
