Work comp: Form -- Notice of File Closing (NOFC)

The Notice of File Closing (NOFC) form is completed by the insurer, self-insured employer or third-party administrator to notify the Department of Labor and Industry (DLI) the file is about to be closed.

Although filing of this form is not required by statute or rule, the voluntary use of it often avoids requests from DLI to the insurer after the file has been closed and shipped to off-site storage.

DLI uses the receipt of this form as a trigger to perform a final audit of the file for compliance with the statutes and rules.

This form is sent to DLI's Workers' Compensation Division and a copy should be kept for your files.
