The New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) module may be used to allocate premiums covering risks within New York to the correct county for taxation. This Allocator module allocates to the county level, as the tax is only levied at the county level.
In the NY MTA module, all policies are allocated to the county rather than the city because the tax is based on county boundaries.
Premium Type Codes
The New York MTA Surcharge applies to all types of premiums written within the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District; therefore, the New York MTA Surcharge module does not differentiate between Premium Type Codes used in the source ASCII file and groups all allocated premiums together.
Premiums allocated to the following counties are included in the total MTA Surcharge amount:
Bronx County
Dutchess County
Kings County
Nassau County
New York County
Orange County
Putnam County
Queens County
Richmond County
Rockland County
Suffolk County
Westchester County
All other premiums are excluded from the total MTA Surcharge amount.
