Click the green “Electronic Filing” navigation button. On the next page, click “Get Started.”

Enter Login email and password. Click “Log In.”

Check the appropriate radial button for the type of filer you are (e.g. Petitioner, Respondent, Intervenor) and complete the boxes with your information. 

Type in the Case Number. If you are filing an initial complaint or appeal, leave this box blank.

** Documents must be submitted in PDF format and be less than 10 MB. Please make sure the documents being uploaded have been redacted (personal information blacked out), if necessary.

Click “Choose File,” then choose the PDF from your computer. If there are multiple PDF documents to submit in one case, please upload each document individually. If you are filing an initial complaint/appeal, please include a copy of the letter or notice you are appealing.

Document Name: The name of the document must be less than 75 characters.

Document Type: Choose from the drop-down menu.

* If you receive an error when uploading a document, be sure the document name is under 75 characters on your personal computer and in the “Document Name” box in the eFiling system.

When you are finished adding all the documents for the case, click “Upload.” This may take several seconds if there are multiple or large documents.

** If a document arrives after 5:00 p.m. and before midnight or on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, it is filed on the next business day at the AHC, unless the AHC orders otherwise. Therefore, the date of actual filing with the AHC may differ from the date of electronic submission.

If the document is more than 75 pages, the AHC requests that you also submit a hard copy by mail to: Administrative Hearing Commission, P.O. Box 1557, Jefferson City, MO 65102-1557, or by hand delivery to the office.

Except for the initial complaint/appeal, a copy of every document you file must also be provided to all other parties involved in the case. The AHC’s eFile system does not notify other parties of a filing. 

Provide the AHC with the name and address (if known) of the party/parties to whom you are providing a copy of your filing. Then choose how the party was or will be notified. If notifying more than one party, click “Add Party.”

By choosing “yes,” you agree to receive filings, orders, decisions, etc., by email from the AHC or from other parties involved in the case or their attorneys. While it is not required, providing an email address allows for faster delivery of documents that may be time-sensitive.

After you apply your electronic signature, click “Submit.”

** Upon submission, you will receive a confirmation page that your submission was successful. If you receive anything other than a confirmation page, you must resubmit your electronic filing. Keep a copy of your confirmation page as proof of submission. A confirmation of filing will not be sent to your email address.
