New York State is classified as a no-fault state, meaning that in the event of a motor vehicle accident, individuals are eligible to seek no-fault benefits from their own insurance companies. At the time of an accident, an individual has the option of filing a No-Fault insurance claim to receive compensation for medical treatment and other damages caused by the accident. If the injured party is forced to miss work because of their injuries, they can also receive monetary compensation from no-fault for their lost wages. In these instances, an Employer’s Wage Verification Report Form (NF-6) would be sent to the current or former employer of the injured individual in order to verify their wages. This information helps the no-fault insurance company determine how much monetary compensation the injured individual might be eligible to receive for the lost wages portion of their no-fault claim.

What Is An NF-6 Form?

The New York State No-Fault Law was first established in 1974 as a means of recovering monetary losses following a motor vehicle accident. The purpose of the NF-6 Form is to determine the proper amount to award an injured individual for the lost wage portion of their no-fault claim. Since this calculation is based on a percentage of the individual’s income, the income in question must be verified before any payments can be made. Individuals seeking reimbursement for their lost wages from no-fault must first submit an Application for Motor Vehicle No-Fault Benefits Form (NF-2) to their insurance company. Once the NF-2 Form has been submitted, their insurance company will send an NF-6 Form to the injured individual’s current or former employer.
