FMCSA & Motus New Registration system …..
As I’m sure most of you know the New Registration system MOTUS has lots of IT issues. I’d would suggest that you make sure you can get logged into the old Legacy FMCSA Portal 1st prior to trying to reclaim your U.S. DOT number in Motus
I would also suggest to make sure you are using the same email address you currently have in the FMCSA Portal for login.gov so that things match
If you try reclaiming your U.S. DOT number under Motus and the link is grayed out to claim your previous authority PLEASE do not click on registration tab….you’ll get a New Authority…..you’ll need to turn in ticket with FMCSA to have them manually activate the link & you’ll have to submit proof of ownership with ticket. If any has questions or needs assistance please feel free to contact me…..
Thanks Kent
