The National Auto Auction Association alerted members about a recent decision by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (NJMVC).

In a message delivered on Thursday, NAAA recapped that NJMVC no longer accepts Connecticut’s Supplemental Assignment of Ownership (Q-1) forms for title transfers in New Jersey.

NAAA explained that the new policy means that Connecticut’s Q-1 form is only for transactions in that state and only for vehicles titled in Connecticut.

“We understand that this could also have an impact in other states. We’ve heard of a similar stance in New Jersey relative to Florida and Indiana forms, and we are aware that this policy may also be getting applied to other states’ forms,” NAAA said in the industry message.

“NAAA has been in contact with our industry partners, including the New Jersey Coalition of Automotive Retailers (NJ CAR). We plan to engage with NJMVC to urge them to revisit implementation of this significant change and to help educate them on the impact to our member auctions’ operations,” NAAA continued.

“We will continue to advocate on your behalf and will inform you as more information becomes available,” NAAA went on to say.
