The NY DMV form DS-885CE, titled Article 19-A Add/Drop Notice Certified Examiner, is a mandatory document used by motor carriers to notify the Department of Motor Vehicles when hiring, reinstating, or terminating a Certified Examiner (CE) under Article 19-A regulations. The form requires detailed carrier information, including the business ID and Federal ID number, alongside specific data for each examiner such as their name, driver license number, date of birth, and unique CE number.
Submission is time-sensitive, as the Bus Driver Unit must receive the notification within 10 days of the effective date of the change in employment status. While electronic carriers are expected to manage these updates online through the 19-A system, non-electronic carriers must submit the form via email or fax. Additionally, all carriers are required to maintain a copy of the completed form within their internal 19-A files to ensure compliance with record-keeping standards for commercial passenger safety and employment history.
